Recently bought this plant from a nursery, I should have taken a closer look before buying. I am guessing it is some type of flower mite. Any guess on the exact species?

    Could be a mealybugs given the color and legs. What kind of flower is it?

      Thanks! Has it gotten any worse? It still looks like mealybugs to me. You can try treating it by soaking q-tips and cotton makeup or gauze pads either isopropyl alcohol and wiping where you see them with it, then spraying it down with an insecticidal soap or neem oil.
