Thanks Diane, good to see another family added to BugFiles. I have created an entry for your Velvet mite here: http://davesgarden.com/guides/bf/go/4995/
and look forward to seeing your image added to it, and i will then use it to illustrate the family in the index.

I am particularly pleased to see a Velvet Mite added. I have photos of one that I took here in Australia, but even sending a specimen to a spider expert at a museum, I have been unable to get it identified any closer than the family, so have been unable to add it to BugFiles.

Here is a picture of my Australian velvet mite:
