Abstract:

Objective Objective To investigate the species of Acaroid mites breeding in the stored traditional Chinese animal medici? nal materials and the relationship between its community and habitats. Methods Methods A total of 30 samples of traditional Chinese animal medicinal herbs were collected from Wuhu City，Anhui Province，China. The mites were isolated by the directly micro? scopic and floatation microscopic examinations，and then identified and counted under a light microscope. Results Results Acaroid mites was represented in 28 of the 30 samples，and the breeding rate accounted for as high as 93.3%（28/30） . Totally，13 spe? cies of Acaroid mites were identified，which belonged to 4 families and 9 genera. The densities of Acaroid mites were top in 6 Chinese herbal medicines，such as corium erinacei，aspongopus，hirudo，pheretima aspergillum，Apostichopus and huechys. The diversity parameters of these six traditional Chinese animal medicinal herbs were calculated. The highest richness indexes were in aspongopus and hirudo，the highest diversity index was in hirudo，and the highest evenness index was in Apostichopus. Conclusions Conclusions There are Acaroid mites breeding in parts of the traditional Chinese animal medicinal herbs stored in Wuhu. In the storage and processing of Chinese herbal medicines， we should pay attention to the prevention and control of mites.

摘要：

目的 目的 了解芜湖地区储藏动物性中药材中孳生的粉螨种类及其群落与生境相互关系。方法 方法 从安徽省芜湖市中药房采集30种储藏动物性中药材样本， 采用直接镜检法和水膜镜检法分离其中的孳生粉螨， 光镜下鉴定粉螨种类并计数， 计算粉螨生态参数。结果 结果 30种储藏动物性中药材样本中有28种孳生粉螨， 粉螨孳生率为93.3% （28/30）； 共检出粉螨13种， 隶属于4科9属。粉螨孳生密度最高的前6种中药材依次为刺猬皮、 九香虫、 水蛭、 地龙、 海参和红娘子， 九香虫和水蛭中的粉螨丰富度指数最高， 水蛭中的粉螨多样性指数最高， 海参中的粉螨均匀度指数最高。结论 结论 芜湖地区部分储藏动物性中药材中有粉螨孳生， 在储藏和加工中药材过程中应采取相关措施以防粉螨孳生。
