Abstract

The mite, Varroa jacobsoni is a hemophagous ectoparasite of honeybees (Apis spec.). Host hemolymph proteins are resorbed by Varroa without digestive degradation. By immunocytochemical methods, these foreign proteins can be localized in growing Varroa oocytes; they are assimilated into the eggs.
