Under a moderately high magnification of 547x, this scanning electron micrograph (SEM) revealed the presence of numbers of mites from the specie Nanorchestes sp., Family Nanorchestidae, which were highly festooned with an adornment of chitinous exoskeletal outcroppings. Under higher magnifications, i.e., PHIL 8808, 8809, these exoskeletal complexities were better appreciated in their diaphanous majesty.Created: 2006

Magnified 273x, this scanning electron micrograph (SEM) revealed the presence of a coating of debris adhered to the ventral surface of an unidentified lizard's head region, which had been found deceased on the grounds of the Decatur, Georgia suburbs. Note the myriad of what proved to be unidentified pollen grains, and unknown parasitic mites. For the full complement of images related to this specimen see PHIL 8803 through 8816, which includes highly magnified views of a Nanorchestes sp. mite found coincidentally on this repitiles skin.Created: 2006

Under a low magnification of 67x, this scanning electron micrograph (SEM) revealed the presence of a coating of debris adhered to the ventral surface of an unidentified lizard's head region, which had been found deceased on the grounds of the Decatur, Georgia suburbs. In this field of view was the reptile's left nostril, or naris. Note the myriad of what proved to be unidentified pollen grains, and unknown parasitic mites. For the full complement of images related to this specimen see PHIL 8803 through 8816, which includes highly magnified views of a Nanorchestes sp. mite found coincidentally on this repitiles skin.Created: 2006
