English: The mites Parasitellus fucorum (De Geer, 1778) develop in the nests of bumblebees. These are the biggest mites that travel phoretic with bumblebees in Central Europe. They prefer the newly raised Queens, that dig into soil in late summer or autum to hibernate until next spring. With this cycle they are able to colonize the new founded nests of the bumblebee queen. Too many mites on a queen often result in unsuccessful nest founding or small colonies. This species is one of the 3 most common phoretic mites on bumblebees in Central Europe.
