Acarology is a branch of zoology that studies the systematics, morphology, phylogeny, biology, ecology, and ontogeny of mites and ticks. The dictionary provides a comprehensive acarological terminology applied mites and ticks. There is no dictionary of mite terminology that appeared for more than thirty years ago. The present dictionary is a result of simplifying terms that appeared in the last three decades. In addition to the acarological vocabularies, a lot of terms concerning several scientific sections (biology, ecology, taxonomy, morphology, physiology and behavior, entomology, plant protection, agricultural, medical, and veterinary pests) were also included. These terms are divided into main groups: sigla (letters, numbers, abbreviations, and signs) refer to the morphological characters for many diversified taxa and are usually used in the identification of mites; and about 2000 English terms. The dictionary also included biographies of the famous acarologists in the world, laboratories, institutes, universities, and societies that are interested in the field of acari, and information about useful internet sites, journals, and textbooks interested in Acarology.
