Oe^ru'iaJ- 154. Rhicephalus sanguineus, male. After Nuttall and Warbur- ton. ee. First pair of legs inserted at one side of the mouth opening; male genital aperture usually on the anterior margin of the sternal plate Gamasidae. This family contains a number of genera, some of which are found upon mammals, though the majority affect only other artho- pods. One species, Laelaps stabularis, frequents the bedding in stables, and in one instance at least, has occasioned irri- tation and itching, in man. bb. No distinct spiracle in the stigmal plate on each side of the body. c. Body usually coriaceous, with few hairs, with a specialized seta arising from a pore near each posterior comer of the cephalothorax; no eyes; mouth parts and palpi very small; ventral openings of the abdomen large; tarsi without sucker. Not parasitic ORIBATOIDEA. cc. Body softer; without such specialized seta. d. Aquatic species HYDRACHNOIDEA. dd.
