I currently have the mites almost completely eliminated, there seems to be a few that don't want to give up, but considering the progress so far, I am fairly confident they will be gone soon too (contrary to some posts in the forum- the water spraying worked wonderfully). I have re-potted it, completely replacing the soil. I discovered that the drainage was extremely poor but luckily the roots were not damaged. With any luck the tree will soon recover from my poor care, and I have learned from my mistakes. If it does recover well I will post more pictures so maybe I can get a more definite ID. Thank you Sodak and Gabe15 for your replies.
