Resumo

The life history of Otodectes cynotis has been observed in vitro and all stages in the cycle described. Mites from the dog, cat, fox, and ferret have been shown to be biologically and morphologically identical, and the varietal names of canis, cati, and furonis are invalidated. Other Carnivora also appear to be potential hosts.
