Female mites of various stages, all from the same cell of the previous photo. The lowest one could be a male, which when not mature yet can difficult to tell from females. Mature males are more round, has a brownish to reddish tint and can move very quickly. None of the female nymph stages (when white) can move fast, if movable at all. Oct 16, 2003.
