On the basis of specimens collected from Eastern Turkey, description and illustrations of a new mite, Oplitis turcica sp. n., have been given. The genus Oplitis Berlese, 1884 has been recorded in Turkey for the first time.
The third African Metagynella Berlese, 1919 species (Metagynella masani sp. n.) is described in this paper. Original drawing and scanning micrographs of the new species are given.
Results of research on the chaetotaxy and morphology of setae in Nenteria pandioni (Acari: Uropodina) from Poland are presented. Certain idiosomal setae were found to be variable in structure. This variability may result from differences within the gene pool and/or from intra-specific variation associated with the process of aging. A full range of setal morphology was observed — from simple and needle-like...
Chelonuropoda africana sp. n. is described with original drawings and scanning micrographs. New records of two other Uropodina species, Neodiscopoma crenulatum Marais et Theron, 1986 and Rotundabaloghia feherdii Kontschán, 2004 from Kenya are given.
We examined the species composition and community structure of mites of the order Mesostigmata (Acari) in nests of the Eurasian griffon vulture (Gyps fulvus Hablizl, 1783) in Croatia. Material collected from 18 nests included 565 mites belonging to seven species. The most abundant species were Leiodinychus orbicularis (C.L. Koch, 1839) (Trematuridae) and Androlaelaps casalis (Berlese, 1887) (Laelapidae)...
A new Uropodina genus (Sinharaja gen. n.) is described on the basis of two new species (S. ceylonensis sp. n. and S. sinhala sp. n.) from Sri Lanka. The new genus differs by the strongly sclerotised dorsal lines, pentagonal pygidial shield, the shape and length of dorsal setae and the shape of first and fourth hypstomal setae, internal malae and epistome from the other known Uropodina genera.
