Consideration is given to the structure and function of the adhesive organ in the male and of the protuberances on the surface of the egg in the Broad mite, Poly phagotarsonemus latus . Scanning Electron microscopy is used to reveal these structures. The adhesive organ serves as a sucker in order that males can carry pharate females. It is believed that the protuberances are part of a discontinuous plastron for gaseous exchange.

PL

Praca jest poświęcona strukturom i funkcjonowaniu organów przyczepnych u samców Polyphagotarsonemus latus oraz strukturze powierzchni jaj tego roztocza. W badaniach posłużono się mikroskopem skaningowym. Organy przyczepne służą samcom do przy trzymywania samic, a struktura widoczna na powierzchni jaj jest pozostałością plastronu
