... The mites of this family have a worldwide distribution, and are known from birds of almost all presently recognized orders of birds (Fain, 1957;Domrow, 1969;Sixl, 1969Sixl, , 1971Sixl, Reich, 1970;Pence, 1975, Spicer, 1984Butenko, 1984, De Rojas et al., 2001, 2002, 2004, 2020Ubeda et al., 2003;Mascarenhas et al., 2007Mascarenhas et al., , 2009Mascarenhas et al., , 2010Mascarenhas et al., , 2011Knee, Procter, 2010;Knee, Galloway, 2016;Beaulieu et al., 2011;Dimov, , 2020. The world fauna of rhinonyssids presently includes more than 600 species arranged in 11 genera (Spicer, 1977(Spicer, , 1978Knee, , 2018Mascarenhas et al., 2018;Dimov, 2010Dimov, , 2010aDimov, , 2011aDimov, , 2011bDimov, , 2012Dimov, , 2012aDimov, , 2012bDimov, , 2012cDimov, , 2012dDimov, , 2013aDimov, , 2013bDimov, , 2013cDimov, , 2016Dimov, , 2017Dimov, , 2020Dimov, , 2020aDimov, , 2020bDimov, , 2020cDimov, Mascarenhas, 2012;Dimov, Mironov, 2012;Dimov, de Rojas, 2012;Dimov, Knee, 2012;Dimov, Spicer, 2013, Dimov et al., 2015De Rojas et al., 2018, 2020. In the classification of the family Rhinonyssidae proposed by Fain (1957), nine genera (Astridiella, Larinyssus, Neonyssus, Ptilonyssus, Rallinyssus, Rhinoecius, Rhinonyssus, Ruandanyssus and Sternostoma) were combined into three subfamilies. ...
... Since the 1950s, the study of the Rhinonyssidae on the territory of Russia had been carried out in the following regions: the Northwest of Russia (Belopolskaya, 1947, Bregetova, 1950, 1965a, 1965b, Butenko, 1962 Stanyukovich, Butenko, 2003; Dimov, 2010Dimov, , 2010a Dimov, , 2011a Dimov, , 2011bDimov, , 2012 Dimov, , 2012a Dimov, , 2012bDimov, , 2012c Dimov, , 2012d Dimov, , 2013a Dimov, , 2013bDimov, , 2013cDimov, , 2016Dimov, , 2017 Dimov, , 2020 Dimov, , 2020a Dimov, , 2020b Dimov, , 2020c Dimov, Mascarenhas, 2012; Dimov, Mironov, 2012; Dimov, de Rojas, 2012; Dimov, Knee, 2012; Dimov, Spicer, 2013, Dimov et al., 2015De Rojas et al., 2018, 2020, the Vologda region (Butenko, 1962), the Moscow region (Zemskaya, Ilyenko, 1958), the Ryazan region (Butenko, Lavrovskaya 1980a, 1980b, Butenko, 1984, the Astrakhan region (Dubinina, 1947) Tyumen region (Butenko, 1984), Novosibirsk region (Butenko 1984) Irkutsk region (Isakov, 1965), Saha (Butenko 1984), Primorsk region (Butenko, 1984). ...
The monograph deals with morphology and systematics of mites of the
family Rhinonyssidae, permanent parasites in nasal cavities of birds, recorded in the
Northwest of Russia. Based on longterm investigations of the author and reference
data, modern uniform diagnoses and key tables are proposed for all rhinonyssid
species and genera found in the region. A comparative analysis of parasitological
characteristics of rhinonyssid species associated with mass host species in the region
carried out for the first time that has shown some regularities of infection rate and
occurrence of mites in some taxonomic groups of birds from local aviafauna.
The monograph is addressed to parasitologists, acarologists, zoologists,
veterinarians, professors, high school and university students.
... In the 1950s the scientific works of Bregerova and Butenko were published, where new essential information was delivered on the mites's varieties present in the Rhinonyssidae family (Bregetova, 1956;Butenko, 1984). As of today, the scholars who are engaged in research work on Rhinonyssidae in Russia are Dimov and De Rojas (Dimov, 2010, 2010a, 2011b, 2012, 2012a, 2012b, 2012c, 2012d, 2013a, 2013b, 2013c, 2016, 20172020;De Rojas e al., 2018;2020). Investigations of rhinonyssids are of a high importance, because in addition to the direct damage to their hosts (Rhinonyssoidosis avium -Dimov, 2011 Opisthosomal idiosoma with long 18 setae (Jv1-Jv3, Zv2, Zv3, UR1-UR3). ...
Here we accept and use a new morphology regarding the change of the old term "cribrum" to the new "ASPERO" (Dimov, 2020). The present study is based on five years intensive field collecting in Russia. Four new species of genus Rhinonyssus are described-Rhinonyssus derojasi n.sp. from Anser anser (Linnaeus, 1758), Rhinonyssus sixli n.sp. from Podiceps ruficollis (Pallas, 1764), Rhinonyssus mileni n.sp. from Charadrius dubius Scopoli, 1786, Rhinonyssus karelinae n.sp. from Charadrius dubius (Scopoli, 1786).
... Specifically, their feeding activity may damage the nasal cavities of birds and may even lead to the death of the hosts (Rhinonyssidosis avium disease) (Dimov, 2011). Also, though yet not investigated, these mites are expected to be reservoirs or vectors of infections such as West Nile fever, Q fever, avian influenza, and Lyme disease (Dimov, 2012;Arabkhazaeli et al., 2016). However, mainly due to sampling difficulties (e.g., these mites usually can only be collected from dead birds), this host-parasite system is very poorly understood. ...
In this data report, we present mitogenomic and metagenomic data of two species of Rhinonyssidae, a group of parasites for which genomic resources are scarce. This lack of knowledge is particularly paradoxical as this group is comprised of around 500 species worldwide and almost every species of bird is inhabited by rhinonyssid mites. We assembled and functionally annotated complete mitochondrial genomes for two mite species. We also carried out a metagenomic analysis (metagenomic classification and
genome-resolved metagenomics) of both species. As a result of these analyses, we report the bacterial species present in both species along with the partial genome of an associated bacterium (which probably belongs to a new species from a new genus). All
the genomic data have been generated using state-of-the-art methodologies and are deposited in the community-standard repositories to ensure their long-term maintenance.
... All specimens from each population were analysed using morphological discriminatory features among Tinaminyssus species: presence and shape of poststigmatal shields, chaetotaxy and shape of the dorsal podosomal shield, arrangement of setae z6, length of Jv 1 and Jv 2 setae, gnathosomal formula, number of ventral setae, convexitas coxae and presence of spina coxae (Fain 1957(Fain , 1962Butenko 1984;Rodríguez Braza et al. 1990;Dimov 2012). ...
... Moreover, 14 morphometrical measures and two ratios between measures (LOS/WOS and LPS/WPS) were retrieved from 75 adult female mites from 16 Eurasian collared doves (Streptopelia decaocto), and 16 European turtle doves (S. turtur), according to Fain (1957), Butenko (1984) and Dimov (2012) (Fig. 1, Table 2). Mites measured from the same host individual were not more similar between them than to mites measured from different host individuals [Repeatability analysis (rptR package v.0.9.21, Stoffel et al. 2017): R (mean, range) = 0.026 (0-0.187), ...
The study of cryptic species allows to describe and to understand biodiversity, and the evolutionary processes shaping it. Mites of the family Rhinonyssidae are permanent parasites of the nasal cavities of birds, currently including about 500 described species and 12 genera. Here, we tested the hypothesis that mites from five populations of the genus Tinaminyssus—three isolated from European turtle doves (Streptopelia turtur), and two from Eurasian collared doves (Streptopelia decaocto; Aves: Columbiformes)—are, in fact, two cryptic species inhabiting different hosts. First, we performed a morphometrical study on 16 traits. Then, we used the ITS1-5.8S rDNA-ITS2 nuclear region (ITS region), and a fragment of the mitochondrial cytochrome c-oxidase 1 (COI) to carry out phylogenetic and species delimitation analyses on Tinaminyssus species. Morphological analyses revealed a lack of biometric differentiation among Tinaminyssus populations from the two host species. However, molecular analyses indicated a high degree of genetic differentiation between populations of Tinaminyssus sp. from S. turtur and S. decaocto. Overall, results show that they can be considered as different cryptic species, suggesting a case of evolutionary stasis, likely because of the anatomical similarity between closely-related bird host species.
... Moreover, indirect mite transmission has been detected through water, perches, or other contaminated surfaces. 9,10 Assuming the same biology and transmission for Ptilonyssus species, disinfection is one of the basic ways to control the infestation in captive flocks, as recommended in this case. ...
Mortalities in a flock of canaries (Serinus canaria) with respiratory acariasis, pododermatitis caused by Staphylococcus aureus, and macrorhabdosis were investigated by postmortem examination. After a thorough parasitologic study, the tracheal mites were identified as Ptilonyssus morofskyi. Cleaning and disinfection of cages and perches, ivermectin application on the cervical skin of individual birds, enrofloxacin medication, and drinking water acidification with vinegar were used to control mortality. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of the occurrence of Ptilonyssus species in captive passerine birds.
