Knemidokoptes
text:
Knemidokoptes is a genus of parasitic mites in the family Epidermoptidae that infect the skin or feather follicles of birds, especially gallinaceous birds as well as parakeets and canaries. Infection commonly causes scaly lesions to form at the face or feet, which is known as knemidocoptiasis. It was formerly placed in the family Knemidokoptidae, which is now treated as a subfamily with 15 species grouped in six genera.
