Mites are one of the most successful and diverse vertebrate groups. The species of veterinary importance are parasitic, although a few non-parasitic mites are also important, such as oribatid  mites (intermediate hosts for [[Anoplocephala|''Anoplocephala'']] and [[Moniezia|''Moniezia'']]) and forage mites.
