Abstract
The first occurrence of larval intradermal mites, Hannemania spp., from New Mexico amphibians was recently reported (Duszynski and Jones, 1973, Int. J. Parasit. 3: 531-538). These parasites are always encapsulated by host connective tissue in the dermis of their host and the capsules are grossly visible below the epidermis. Basic histochemical procedures were used to help characterize and give us a better understanding of the structure and formation of this tissue capsule.
