Yes, I'm pretty sure it's the same thing. Dust mites are acariformes, so it sounds right, and they're a pretty well-known allergy vector (got the pillows, the mattress, the vacuum cleaner, et cetera, yeah?).

i'm pretty sure it's the same thing too. i think i used to know that was the english name, but i forgot. see, yet another reason to hate the nasty buggers (arachnids in general, i mean. they just torment me in every way they can).
and yes, i have the synthetic pillows, and the special hermetic cover that enveloppes my entire mattress (and let me tell you, putting that thing on is just a laugh a minute, especially since like an idiot a few years ago --before i knew i was allergic-- i bought a futon mattress which flops around and folds inconveniently and seems to be actively resisting throughout the process... i'm just counting the weeks until the 10 years is up and i can buy a REAL mattress), and the vacuum with a hepa filter... and many many other rules.
