Wolfgang Karg
Wolfgang Siegfried Karg (1927–2016) was an East Germany, East German entomologist who specialised in Mite, mites (Acari). Following captivity in World War II he completed high school and teacher training, and then taught in high schools from 1948 to 1950 in Groß-Alsleben, Saxony-Anhalt_(1945–1952), Sachsen-Anhalt, in what was then East Germany. He received his doctorate in 1960 from Humboldt University of Berlin, Humboldt University in Berlin and completed his habilitation in 1965 with a thesis on Phylogenetic tree, phylogeny of predatory mites. From 1956 he worked at the Biological Research Centre in Berlin. In 1990 he was appointed professor. He worked on the effect of pesticides on Arthropod, microarthropods in various ecosystems; predatoy mites in agronomy; and the systematics and phylogeny of Mesostigmata, and was awarded the Fabricius medal in 1993 by the :de:Deutsche_Gesellschaft_für_allgemeine_und_angewandte_Entomologie, Deutsche Gesellschaft für Allgemein ...

Mites
Mites are small arachnids (eight-legged arthropods) of two large orders, the Acariformes and the Parasitiformes, which were historically grouped together in the subclass Acari. However, most recent genetic analyses do not recover the two as each other's closest relative within Arachnida, rendering the group invalid as a clade. Most mites are tiny, less than in length, and have a simple, unsegmented body plan. The small size of most species makes them easily overlooked; some species live in water, many live in soil as decomposers, others live on plants, sometimes creating galls, while others are Predation, predators or Parasitism, parasites. This last type includes the commercially destructive ''Varroa'' parasite of honey bees, as well as scabies mites of humans. Most species are harmless to humans, but a few are associated with allergies or may transmit diseases. The scientific discipline devoted to the study of mites is called acarology.

Mesostigmata
Mesostigmata is an order of mites belonging to the Parasitiformes. They are by far the largest group of Parasitiformes, with over 8,000 species in 130 families. Mesostigmata includes parasitic as well as free-living and predatory forms. They can be recognized by the single pair of spiracles positioned laterally on the body. The family with the most described species is Phytoseiidae. Other families of note are Diplogyniidae, Macrochelidae, Pachylaelapidae, Uropodidae and Veigaiidae. Amongst the best known species are ''Varroa destructor'', an economically important parasite of honey bees, as well as the red mite (''Dermanyssus gallinae''), a parasite of poultry, most commonly chickens. Description Mesostigmata are mites ranging from 0.12–4 mm long (0.2–4 mm according to another source). They have a pair of stigmatal openings above legs III-IV usually associated with a peritrematal groove. The gnathosoma has a sclerotised ring around the bases of the chelic ...

Taxa Named By Wolfgang Karg
In biology, a taxon (back-formation from ''taxonomy''; : taxa) is a group of one or more populations of an organism or organisms seen by taxonomists to form a unit. Although neither is required, a taxon is usually known by a particular name and given a particular ranking, especially if and when it is accepted or becomes established. It is very common, however, for taxonomists to remain at odds over what belongs to a taxon and the criteria used for inclusion, especially in the context of rank-based (" Linnaean") nomenclature (much less so under phylogenetic nomenclature). If a taxon is given a formal scientific name, its use is then governed by one of the nomenclature codes specifying which scientific name is correct for a particular grouping. Initial attempts at classifying and ordering organisms (plants and animals) were presumably set forth in prehistoric times by hunter-gatherers, as suggested by the fairly sophisticated folk taxonomies. Much later, Aristotle, and later still ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
