Martian Wink8488 viewsProstigmata, Parasitengona
This structure, which appears rather like the eye of a character straight from science fiction, is the genital opening of a terrestrial
parasitengone mite and the three oval structures are the genital papillae. Genital papillae are remnants of opisthosomal limb
segments in acariform mites (and still retain the segmented condition in some primitive oribatid mites) and are probably
homologous with the spinnerets of spiders. Although spiders use their opisthosomal limb remnants for spinning silk, acariform mites probably use theirs for osmoregulatory activities, possibly including drinking.

Coxiella burnetii (Q-Fever) (Colour Enhanced)Q-Fever is an acute (abrupt-onset), self-limited febrile illness first reported in 1935 in Queensland, Australia. The Q is said not to be for Queensland, but for query since the cause of the disease was long a query (question mark).
It is caused by the bacterium Coxiella burnetii, a rickettsia which mainly afflicts sheep and cattle but can be transmitted to humans who have contact with infected animals.
Symptoms resemble those of influenza and include sudden onset of fever, headache, malaise, and pneumonia (interstitial pneumonitis) but no rash.
