Antennophorina (lat.) - a suborder of ticks from the order Mesostigmata . About 200 species in 22 families [2] . The dorsal shield of males and females is whole, undivided. with two lacunas. Claws in the first pair of legs are absent [3] [4] . Adult individuals are usually associated with arthropods ( ants , stingless bees, termites , cockroaches , beetles , millipedes ) or reptiles ( snakes , lizards ). Free-living predators ( Triplogyniidae ) are also known. Young stages of development are rarely found on arthropods; many of them are predators in the nests of the owners of their older stages of development [5] .
