  • (Acari: Mesostigmata) Associated with the White-Spotted Sawyer Beetle (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae): Diversity, Phenology, Host Attachment, and Sex Bias
    1 The natural history of mites (Acari: Mesostigmata) associated with the white-spotted sawyer beetle (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae): diversity, phenology, host attachment, and sex bias Wayne Knee,1 Tammy Hartzenberg, Mark R. Forbes, Fre´de´ric Beaulieu Abstract—Little is known about the acarofauna associated with wood-boring beetles in Canada, including long-horned beetles (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae). Herein, we assessed the prevalence, abun- dance, diversity, phenology, and attachment location of mesostigmatic mites (Acari: Mesostigmata) associated with Monochamus scutellatus (Say), and tested whether the abundance and prevalence of mites differed between male and female beetles. A total of 176 beetles were collected in two sites in eastern Ontario in 2008 and 2009 using Lindgren funnel traps baited with a-pinene and ethanol lures, and 71% of hosts had mesostigmatic mites. A total of 2486 mites were collected, representing eight species, four genera, and three families (Digamasellidae, Trematuridae, and Melicharidae). Average prevalence was variable across mite species, and the number of mites per infested beetle also varied across species. Many of the mite species collected in this study have been reported from other cerambycid species, as well as from other wood-boring beetles, such as bark beetles. There was no significant sex bias in the abundance or prevalence of mites between male and female M. scutellatus, which suggests that there is no selective advantage for mites to disperse on females. This study represents the first quantitative investigation of the mites associated with M. scutellatus in Canada. Re´sume´—On connaıˆt peu au sujet de la faune d’acariens associe´e aux scolytes au Canada, y compris celle associe´e aux longicornes (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae).

The study was conducted in the Białowieża Forest, which is recognized as one of Europe’s last natural forest areas. Insects were caught over a period of 8 weeks in 72 attractant traps (type Intercept IPM). In total 1250 specimens of genus Tetropium were collected. We analyzed 524 beetles, including 295 specimens of T. castaneum and 229 specimens of T. fuscum. On 49 beetles (9.4%) there were 785 individuals of Trichouropoda shcherbakae (Trematuridae). Mites were more common on T. fuscum, which carried 82% of all collected deutonymphs. Most of the mites found on beetles were attached to their legs. This study reports on changes in the intensity of phoresy in time and location of mite deutonymphs on their host species.

Quite a number of species are parasites and some feed on fungal material. Mesostigmata occur in a wide variety of habitats. Agricultural areas have been sampled extensively in the Netherlands, both on soil dwelling as well as on vegetation dwelling species. A number of more natural habitats are undersampled and more species for the Netherlands may be expected there. The current checklist contains 458 species, which are listed with their synonyms and occurrence records for the country.

B. HALLIDAY Australian National Insect Collection, CSIRO, GPO Box 1700, Canberra ACT 2601, Australia. E-mail [email protected] Abstract This paper provides details of 300 genus-group names in the suborder Uropodina, including the superfamilies Microgynioidea, Thinozerconoidea, Uropodoidea, and Diarthrophalloidea. For each name, the information provided includes a reference to the original description of the genus, the type species and its method of designation, and details of nomenclatural and taxonomic anomalies where necessary. Twenty of these names are excluded from use because they are nomina nuda, junior homonyms, or objective junior synonyms. The remaining 280 available names appear to include a very high level of subjective synonymy, which will need to be resolved in a future comprehensive revision of the Uropodina. Key words: Acari, Mesostigmata, Uropodina, generic names, type species Introduction Mites in the Suborder Uropodina are very abundant in forest litter, but can also be found in large numbers in moss, under stones, in ant nests, in the nests and burrows made by vertebrates, and in dung and carrion. Most appear to be predators that feed on nematodes or other small invertebrates, but others may feed on living and dead fungi and plant tissue (Lindquist et al., 2009).

  • Zootaxa, Trichouropoda Turcicaovalis (Acari: Trematuridae)
    Zootaxa 1132: 31–49 (2006) ISSN 1175-5326 (print edition) www.mapress.com/zootaxa/ ZOOTAXA 1132 Copyright © 2006 Magnolia Press ISSN 1175-5334 (online edition) Trichouropoda turcicaovalis sp. nov., a new uropodine mite (Acari: Mesostigmata: Trematuridae) from Turkey DURMUÔ AL¤ BAL1 & MUHL¤S ÖZKAN2 1Atatürk University, Erzincan Education Faculty, 24030 Erzincan, Turkey; E-mail: [email protected] 2Uluda™ University, Education Faculty, Bursa, Turkey; E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Trichouropoda turcicaovalis sp. nov. (Acari : Trematuridae) is described and illustrated on the basis of specimens collected from Turkey. The protonymph, deutonymph and adult of the new species are described, and an identification key for all 45 species of the Trichouropoda ovalis species group is presented. Key Words : Acari, Uropodina, Trichouropoda, new species, Turkey Introduction The world revision of Hirschmann and WiÑniewski (1986, 1987, 1988, 1989) describes the state of knowledge of the genus Trichouropoda Berlese, 1916. This large and cosmopolitan genus is represented by 394 species (WiÑniewski, 1998). The genus has been divided into 11 species-groups for easy identification (Hirschmann and WiÑniewski, 1986, 1993). Since Hirschmann and WiÑniewsk’s revision, some closely related species in the T. ovalis group have been recorded from central Europe (Mašán 1999, 2001), and this species group now includes 45 species. Hirschmann and Zirngiebl-Nicol (1961) established the T. ovalis group based on ventral gnathosomal features of the male, which can also be seen in the protonymph, deutonymph and larva. Adults of the two sexes share the same characteristics of the ventral gnathosoma, namely smooth shortened C1 setae, branched hypostomal setae C2– C4, and C2 forked, resembling the horn of a deer.

Mites (Acari) are a numerous and functionally essential component of these forests. We report the diversity of two important groups, Oribatida and Mesostigmata, in a broadleaf forest in Eastern Norway which is considered to be a biodiversity hotspot.
