Nagyi Sp. Nov., a New Uropodina Mite Species from a Bamboo Thicket (Acari: Mesostigmata)
Acta Phytopathologica et Entomologica Hungarica 55 (2), pp. 217–222 (2020) DOI: 10.1556/038.55.2020.022 Rotundabaloghia (Circobaloghia) nagyi sp. nov., a New Uropodina Mite Species from a Bamboo Thicket (Acari: Mesostigmata) J. KONTSCHÁN1* and A. NEMÉNYI2 1Plant Protection Institute, Centre for Agricultural Research, H-1525 Budapest, P.O. Box 102, Hungary 2Department of Horticulture, Szent István University, Páter Károly u. 1., H-2100 Gödöllő, Hungary (Received: 11 September 2020; accepted: 25 September 2020) A new species (Rotundabaloghia (Circobaloghia) nagyi sp. nov.) of the rotundabaloghid mites is de- scribed based on females and male collected in bamboo leaf litter in Cameroon. The new species differs from the other Afrotropical rotundabaloghid mites in following character combination: female genital shield with long apical process, the setae v7 and v8 long and pilose, v6 long and smooth, v2 short and needle-like, female genital, dorsal and ventral shields are ornamented by irregular pits, sternal setae short and needle-like. This character combination is unknown within the African rotundabaloghids. Keywords: Soil mites, Uropodina, taxonomy, Cameroon. The family Rotundabaloghidae is one of the intensively studied groups within the Uropodina mites with more than 120 described species from the tropics. The members of the large and widely distributed subgenus Rotundabaloghia (Circobaloghia) occur in all the tropics; Circobaloghia species are reported from Neotropical, Afrotropical and Orien- tal regions (Kontschán 2010). The West-African sub-region is a poorly investigated part of the Ethiopian realm from rotundabaloghid mite point of view. Rotundabaloghid mites from this sub-region are presented only from Cameroon, Ghana, Republic of Congo, Ivory Coast, Togo and Sierra Leone and till today only 15 species are reported (Kontschán 2010, 2019a, 2020a, b). -

The Hungarian acarological literature from 1801 to 2010, excluding medical sciences (e.g. epidemiological, clinical acarology) is reviewed. Altogether 1500 articles by 437 authors are included. The publications gathered are presented according to authors listed alphabetically. The layout follows the references of the paper of Horváth as appeared in the Folia entomologica hungarica in 2004. INTRODUCTION The primary aim of our compilation was to show all the (scientific) works of Hungarian aca- he acarological literature attached to Hungary rologists published in foreign languages. Thereby T and Hungarian acarologists may look back to many Hungarian papers, occasionally important a history of some 200 years which even with works (e.g. Balogh, 1954) would have gone un- European standards can be considered rich.
