This checklist brings together the names of all mites that are known to occur in Australia. The correct nomenclature is given for each species, and every species is placed within the appropriate genus and family, using current classification. The checklist also provides a bibliography of information on biogeography, economic importance and, in the case of pests, biology and control.
"Mites of Australia, a checklist and bibliography is a masterful summary of our current state of knowledge of the Australian mite fauna....his attractive, superbly produced volume is laid out in a traditional catalogue style....Cataloguing is probably one of life's thankless tasks, but I only have two words for Bruce - Thank You."--Mark Harvey, Australasian Arachnology
