Beitr. 49/2 1309-1321 11.12.2017 Fauna of Ascoidea (except Ameroseiidae) in Guilan province, Iran with two new species record for Iran mites fauna Fatemeh KARAMI, Jalil HAJIZADEH & Hadi OSTOVAN A b s t r a c t : A faunistic study of superfamily Ascoidea (Acari: Mesostigmata) except family Ameroseiidae in Guilan province, Northern Iran was carried out during 2015-2016. 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. -

Dancing on the Head of a Pin: Mites in the Rainforest Canopy Download 673.69 KB
Records of the Western Australian Museum Supplement Number 52: 49-53 (1995). Dancing on the head of a pin: mites in the rainforest canopy David Evans WaIter Department of Entomology and Centre for Tropical Pest Management, University of Queensland, St Lucia 4072, Australia Abstract - Mites, the most diverse taxon in the Arachnida, are a major component of the rainforest canopy fauna. Twenty-nine species of mites were identified from the outermost canopy (leaves and their subtending stems) of a single rose marara tree (Pseudoweinmannia lachnocarpa) growing in subtropical rainforest in south-eastern Queensland. None of these species were found in suspended soils collected from a treehole and the root mats of two epiphytic ferns on the same tree, although 21 other mite species lived in the soils. Forty-seven leaves and 290 cm of small stems from brown beech trees (Pennantia cunninghamii) at two subtropical rainforest sites 110 km apart contained 1615 mites representing 43 species. The average brown beech leaf contained three times as many species as the average rose marara leaf. Most mites collected from brown beech leaves were found within domatia, structures lacking on rose marara leaves. When domatia were blocked, average species number per leaf was reduced to half that on leaves with open domatia. Only four mite species were common to both sites, and only five species were found on both rose marara and brown beech, suggesting that a very diverse fauna awaits discovery. INTRODUCTION two sites to determine whether the arboreal fauna The Acari are admittedly the most abundant and is similar between sites and test the effect of leaf diverse group in the Arachnida; yet, mites often domatia on the diversity of the foliar fauna. -

On Predation in Epicriidae (Gamasida, Anactinotrichida) and Fine- Structural Details of Their Forelegs
SOIL ORGANISMS Volume 82 (2) August 2010 pp. 179–192 ISSN: 1864 - 6417 On predation in Epicriidae (Gamasida, Anactinotrichida) and fine- structural details of their forelegs Gerd Alberti Zoologisches Institut und Museum, Ernst-Moritz-Arndt-Universität Greifswald, J.-S.-Bach-Str. 11/12, 17489 Greifswald, Germany; Tel.: +49 38351-305; e-mail: [email protected] Abstract The present study reveals, based on video-recording, that Epicriidae are predators using their long forelegs provided with a number of long clubbed setae for the capture of small arthropods. The mite walks slowly with raised and probing forelegs. Upon contact with a small isotomid springtail, the forelegs rapidly touch the prey with the tips of the elongated, clubbed setae. The prey evidently adheres to these setae and is drawn back to the mouthparts. The epicriid feeds for a considerable time on its prey whereby the mite can move around until it finds a shelter. The clubs represent spinose setal ends which are loaded with a granular secretion. The origin of the secretion could not yet be clarified definitely. Since the setae contain a lumen it might be that the secretion reaches the club through the seta. The secretion which covers the surface of the mite as a cerotegument is fine structurally distinctly different and is most likely produced by typical anactinotrichid dermal glands, which also occur in the forelegs. Some details of the fine structure of legs I are demonstrated. Since these clubbed setae occur in all Epicriidae it seems likely that all are predators feeding on small, weakly sclerotised arthropods.

E-mail: [email protected] 2Department of Evolution, Ecology and Organismal Biology, Ohio State University (OSU), Columbus, Ohio, United States of America 3Departamento de Entomologia e Acarologia, Escola Superior de Agricultura “Luiz de Queiroz, Universidade de São Paulo (ESALQ/ USP), Piracicaba, São Paulo, Brazil Abstract Cosmolaelaps Berlese, 1903 was originally described as a subgenus of Laelaps Koch. More recently, this group has been treated at the generic level or as a subgenus of Hypoaspis Canestrini, 1885. One of the objectives of the present paper is to provide a detailed characterisation of Cosmolaelaps, here considered at the generic level, a group that was poorly char- acterised in its original description as well as in subsequent publications. It is most closely related to Stratiolaelaps Ber- lese, from which it can usually be distinguished by the presence of extra paired and unpaired setae on the opisthonotal region of the dorsal shield, as well as by not having hypertrophied chelicerae or corniculi. A total of 108 species belong to Cosmolaelaps, including the new species described here. Five other species may also belong to this genus, but the avail- able published information does not allow their conclusive placement. -
