ResumoVarious aspects of reproductive behavior were investigated in the mites Dermanyssus gallinae, Ophionyssus natricis, Ornithonyssus bacoti, and Ornithonyssus sylviarum. Results of observations and experiments were compared on such topics as: the effect of mating on feeding, oviposition and longevity of the females; effect of feeding on mating; site of mating; longevity of spermatozoa in the female; and multiple mated females' effect on sex ratio of progeny.
