hi all! as most of you Bee-listers are probably aware of, we have four different mite diseases in honeybees: english: latin: 1. Tracheal mite disease (Acarapis woodi) 2. Varroa mite disease (Varroa jacobsoni) 3. Tropilaelaps mite disease (Tropilaelaps clareae) 4. Euvarroa mite disease (Euvarroa sinhai) I am wondering if the english names above are the correct expressions for these diseases. I'm reasonably sure of nrs. 1 and 2, but what about the others? Any help is enormously appreciated. Please answer to my Email address below, or to this List. -- \|/ @ @ Hugo Veerkamp ----------oOO-(_)-OOo--------------------------------------------- | Email: BEENET INTERNATIONAL | | [log in to unmask] | mail : the Bee bbs | | | P.O.
