Marshall, David J.; Pugh, Philip J. A.. 1996 Origin of the inland Acari of Continental Antarctica, with particular reference to Dronning Maud Land. Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society, 118 (2). 101-118. 10.1111/j.1096-3642.1996.tb00221.x
Abstract
The extant Acari occurring on the inland mountain ranges and nunataks of Continental Antarctica comprise only pre-Pleistocene endemic Prostigmata and Cryptostigmata of which the Prostigmata are the probable earlier colonists. The inland acarofauna of Continental Antarctica has a different origin from that of Maritime Antarctica, though both are the relict descendants of a Mesozoic acarofauna, which has been radically depleted by one or more Mesozoic and/or Cenozoic glacial events.
