“…This result reinforces the prevalence of this species in Brazilian cheese infested with mites (Carvalho et al 2018a(Carvalho et al , 2018b(Carvalho et al , 2020, differing from Acarus siro and Tyrolichus casei commonly found in Europe as technological adjuvants in cheese production (Melnyk et al 2010). However, the species T. putrescentiae can be found all over the globe, which makes the result of this work important for several cheese-producing countries (Carvalho et al 2018a(Carvalho et al , 2018b(Carvalho et al , 2020. The results presented in this study indicated that this food is safe because it provides weight gain with no evidence of signs of disease in the tested subjects.…”

“…Filamentous fungi, the main food of mites naturally present in the cheese ripening environment, produce volatile compounds that can attract the mites to the surface of the cheese (Carvalho et al 2018b). Due to this mycophagy and reduction of the presence of fungi on the surface, the mites begin to consume the cheese itself, causing product loss, in symbiosis with the growth of new fungal hyphae (Carvalho et al 2018a(Carvalho et al , 2018b.…”

Cheese mites environment infestations have been recurrent and well‐known for a long time. Nevertheless, studies aiming to evaluate consumption safety have not yet been conducted, causing legislation in many countries to prohibit and destroy this type of product when detected. Here, we evaluated whether feeding upon cheeses ripened with Tyrophagus putrescentiae (Acari: Acaridae) mites would impair the physiological status of non‐immunosuppressed and immunosuppressed (cyclophosphamide‐treated) mice. Our results revealed the absence of any detrimental effects of eating mite‐ripened cheeses, which can support the advancements in the regularisation of cheeses ripened with mites.

Gansu is a province in the northwest of China that is well known for its rich grassland types and important alfalfa planting base in China. Among the key limiting factors in alfalfa products and high quality are insect and mite pests, particularly those occurring on root and stem parts. Mite populations were collected on alfalfa roots from Jiuquan City located in the northwest part of Gansu Province. This study aimed to identify the principle mite species infesting alfalfa in Gansu Province, by molecular and morphological characterization. DNA from 20 specimens and morphological data from 45 specimens (15 adult females, 20 adult males [10 homeomorphic and 10 heteromorphic] and 10 deutonymphs were used to confirm the identity of the mite species. The species present is described here as a new species (Sancassania alfalfa Shang & Li, sp. nov.).
