The present volume includes 396 titles by researchers from 43 countries. In these publications, 135 new species and genera are described. The majority of articles concern ecology (34%), taxonomy (23%), faunistics (21%), biology (3 %) and the bee-mite Varroa (9%). Please inform us if we have failed to list all your publications in the Bibliographia. The database on mesostigmatic mites already contains 16,361 papers and 17,006 taxa. Every scientist who sends keywords for literature researches can receive a list of literature or taxa. Please help us keep the database as complete as possible by sending us pdf files, reprints or copies of all your papers on mesostigmatic mites, or, if this is not possible, complete references. The literature from 1995 to 2015 is searchable on the Internet. The Bibliographia Mesostigmatologica of number 1 to 11 and the issues 1 to 15 of ACARI can be downloaded free of charge. http:// www.senckenberg.de/Acari We are endeavouring to expand the reference collections on mites and are interested in obtaining determined mite material. It goes without saying that the deposition of type material in the acarological collections of the Senckenberg Museum of Natural History Görlitz is also possible. The availability of our collections is guaranteed, as presently 3 scientists and technical personnel are working with the mite collections.

Abstract: The functional response of the phytoseiid predator Chileseius camposi González y Schuster, 1962 (Acarina:Phytoseiidae) on densities of its prey Panonychus ulmi (Koch, 1836) was evaluated under controlled temperature (20 ± 2 ºC),, relative humidity (75 ± 15%) and photoperiod (16:8h L:D). A functional type II response was displayed (Holling’s disk). Holling, Wolf transformation and Rogers models gave similar values for estimating parameters of the Holling’s disk equation; however, estimates produced by the Livdahl and Stiven model were higher. Values of attack rate and handling time can be considered within the normal range for phy- toseiid generalists.

During this study 13 species of seven genera belong to two families Ascidae and Melicharidae were collected and identified. Four species namely Asca aphidioides (LINNAEUS), Zerconopsis michaeli EVANS & HYATT, Antennoseius (Antennoseius) bacatus ATHIAS-HENRIOT from family Ascidae and Proctolaelaps scolyti EVANS from family Melicharidae are new records for the mites fauna of Guilan Province. Proctolaelaps fiseri SAMŠIŇÁK (Melicharidae) and Zerconopsis remiger (KRAMER) (Ascidae) are new for Iran mites fauna. Expanded descriptions including illustrations of the adult female of Proctolaelaps fiseri and Zerconopsis remiger, respectively are provided based on the Iranian material. K e y w o r d s : Fauna, Ascoidea, Mesostigmata, New records, Iran. Introduction The superfamily Ascoidea is richly represented in tropical, temperate, and arctic alpine regions, where many of its members are free-living predators of nematodes and micro- arthropods in soil or humus and suspended arboreal litter habitats.

  • Risk of Exposure of a Selected Rural Population in South Poland to Allergenic Mites
    Experimental and Applied Acarology https://doi.org/10.1007/s10493-019-00355-7 Risk of exposure of a selected rural population in South Poland to allergenic mites. Part II: acarofauna of farm buildings Krzysztof Solarz1 · Celina Pająk2 Received: 5 September 2018 / Accepted: 27 February 2019 © The Author(s) 2019 Abstract Exposure to mite allergens, especially from storage and dust mites, has been recognized as a risk factor for sensitization and allergy symptoms that could develop into asthma. The aim of this study was to investigate the occurrence of mites in debris and litter from selected farm buildings of the Małopolskie province, South Poland, with particular refer- ence to allergenic and/or parasitic species as a potential risk factor of diseases among farm- ers. Sixty samples of various materials (organic dust, litter, debris and residues) from farm buildings (cowsheds, barns, chaff-cutter buildings, pigsties and poultry houses) were sub- jected to acarological examination. The samples were collected in Lachowice and Kurów (Suski district, Małopolskie). A total of 16,719 mites were isolated including specimens from the cohort Astigmatina (27 species) which comprised species considered as allergenic (e.g., Acarus siro complex, Tyrophagus putrescentiae, Lepidoglyphus destructor, Glycy- phagus domesticus, Chortoglyphus arcuatus and Gymnoglyphus longior). Species of the families Acaridae (A. siro, A. farris and A. immobilis), Glycyphagidae (G. domesticus, L. destructor and L. michaeli) and Chortoglyphidae (C. arcuatus) have been found as numeri- cally dominant among astigmatid mites. The majority of mites were found in cowsheds (approx. 32%) and in pigsties (25.9%). The remaining mites were found in barns (19.6%), chaff-cutter buildings (13.9%) and poultry houses (8.8%).

Abstract Research history of the taxonomy, morphology, biology and ecology of the Psoroptidia in China until 31 Dec 2009 was summarized. A checklist of 70 species, 1 subspecies and 11 varieties, in 49 genera of 20 families and a checklist of mites unidentified to species of 8 families are provided. Key words: Acari, feather mites, dust mites, Analgoidea, Pterolichoidea, Sarcoptoidea, China, Hong Kong, Taiwan Introduction The Psoroptidia is one of the two major groups (Acaridia and Psoroptidia) in the Astigmatina (=Astigmata) which was previously known as an order or suborder and recently ranked as a cohort within the suborder Oribatida (OConnor 2009). Most of its members are associated with birds and mammals, occuring on flight feathers and large coverts of the wings, sometimes in the down layer and on the skin, feeding on feather fragments, lipids, scaly skin debris, feather fungi and algae (OConnor 2009).
