Inguinal and axillary dermatitis in wallabies in north Queensland due to the dermanyssid mite Thadeua serrata.

The article presents the current report that extends both the host and geographical range of T serrata in Queensland. This paper has not previously been associated with any lesions. There are relatively few reports of dermatitis in marsupials associated with mites. Animals examined were collected dead on the side of the road and in most instances were frozen prior to examination.
