| March 2009. A request to identify the mites found on shallot, Jakata, Indonesia. They were thought to be Rhizoglyphus echinoporus.
There was no response.
Later (June 2011), Zhi-Qiang Zhang, Landcare, New Zealand, said “It is a member of the family Acaridae but unlikely to be Rhizoglyphus. My colleague Dr QH Fan and I agree that it is most likely to be a species of Sancassania based on the host and lengths of caudal setae ( this is obvious in the mite at the right hand side).
