Respiratory System of the Mite Varroa jacobsoni (Parasitiformes, Varroidea). Akimov I. A, Yastrebtsov A. V.— Vestn. zool., 1984, No. 3. Respiratory system in Varroa
 
 jacobsoni consists of 4 pairs of anterior and 4 pairs of superior tracheal stems, a pair of
 stigmal orifices, situated laterally between III and IV pairs of coxae, and a pair of
 
 peritremes, situated transversally. Preatrial and atrial chambers, giving the rise to
 tracheal stems and peritremal tubes, are connected with stigmal orifices. Peritremes with
 
 their ability to fold downward and stigmae have no own muscles. A complex peritremal
 system is probably responsible for water balance at a mite transpiration. The active
 
 breathing movements (2 to 5 times per min.) are due to opistosomal dors-ventral muscles
 and external muscles of the walking legs. Under mite movement, tracheal ventilation is
 continuous.
