Can we define "Phoresy" of Broad mites?
Phoresy=
"a nonparasitic relationship in which one species is carried about by another."
- I guess the mites go on insects to get on other host plants?
look at this paper:
How species-specific is the phoretic relationship
between the broad mite, Polyphagotarsonemus latus
(Acari: Tarsonemidae), and its insect hosts?
