Extract

The New World iguanid lizards of the genus Sceloporus are parasitized by the scale-mite Geckobiella texana (Banks) 1904. This species has been sufficiently described by Banks (1904, 1906, 1907, 1915), Hirst (1917, 1926), Lawrence (1953) and Lane (1954), while the life history has been worked out by Goodwin (1954).
