Popis: The responsibility of the Pyemotes in the genesis of certain parasite prurigo is known since the middle of the 19th century. The epidemic that we are describing owes its originality to the species Pyemotes zwoelferi sent in a bunch of dried flowers coming from Yugoslavia. The affection of man by these Pyemotes is essentially due to two factors: one of them is of an ecological nature due to the violent change of the conditions under which the acarian population grew and developed, and the other one linked to the species and the belonging to the ventricosus group. The varieties of the ventricosus group have a host specificity which is by far less narrow than that of the scolity group and they are also the most pathogenic to man.
