Euzetes
Euzetes is a genus of oribatid mites in the family Ceratozetidae, established by Berlese in 1908. These mites belong to the diverse group of soil-dwelling microarthropods commonly known as moss mites or beetle mites. The genus occurs in temperate regions of Europe, with documented presence in Denmark, Norway, Sweden, and the British Isles. Oribatid mites in this group contribute to decomposition processes in forest and soil ecosystems.
