Dear college, What is sure is that, I collected the mite from the Apis mellifera colonies in Nevis myself. I did not study its reproduction or have data on its DNA analysis only its morphological similarity was the basement of the judgement as is normal in this situation. In Apidologie 31 (2000) 281-292 written by Anderson "Variation in the parasitic bee mite Varroa jacobsoni Oud." Figure 2, is dealing with the appearance of a representative mite from Java and Korea haplotype. A SEM micrograph of Nevisian Varroa shown in a figure in American Bee Journal November issue is also exist. Please compare an see to which category the mite belong. If it belong to Java haplotype then the figure 2 of Anderson work is no longer valid, and recognition is not possible with the appearance. Best regards Kamran Fakhimzadeh
