“…This new species, Typhlodromus (Typhlodromus) spicae sp.n., belongs to a group of species with 4 pairs of solenostomes (gd2, gd6, gd8, gd9) on the dorsal shield, ventrianal shield pentagonal and without preanal pores. We reduced the 29 species with similar characters to 23 based on synonyms and possible synonyms suggested in Ferragut & Ueckermann (2012); Stathakis et al (2012);and Tixier et al (2016). Z4 is about 0.7 times the length of Z5.…”

“…Dimensions are listed for the holotype, with variations of paratypes in brackets. The Phytoseiidae database by Ferragut & Ueckermann (2012), Stathakis et al (2012), Demite, et al (2014 and Tixier et al (2016) were used in confirming the new species. The setal notations adopted were those of Lindquist & Evans (1965), as adapted by Rowell et al (1978) for the dorsum.…”

The European grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.) is the main species used for wine making, with South Africa being one of the top wine exporting countries. Grapevine is vulnerable to a range of pests, including mites. We present an overview of phytophagous and predatory mites on grapevine in South Africa and describe a new phytoseiid species which was discovered in the winelands region of Wellington, South Africa. Grapevine shoots with leaves were collected over two growing seasons at four farms in Wellington. A nursery, mother block and a commercial vineyard were selected on each farm. The mites were removed with a mite brushing machine and slide mounted. The Phytoseiidae Database, as well the most recent relevant literature were used in confirming the new species. Illustrations of the new species were made using photographs taken by Zeiss Axioskop TM Research that included a Zen Soft Imaging System. The new Typhlodromus species, Typhlodromus (Typhlodromus) spiceae sp.n., is set apart from closely related species by setae Z4 being 0.7 times the length of Z5 and by having a short, saccular and thick-walled spermathecal. This species was found together with one phytophagous mite species (Brevipalpus lewisi) and several predatory mite species (Typhlodromus praeacutus, Typhlodromus saevus, Eusieus addoensis). A key to identify females of the South African species of Typhlodromus (Typhlodromus) is provided.

“…Most phytoseiid taxonomists have by now accepted a series of morphological characters that should be taken into account for accurate description of new species. The features considered are reported in illustrations, showing the habitus of the dorsal and ventral shields, dorsal and ventral chaetotaxy and adenotaxy, macrosetae present on leg IV, shape of chelicera, number of teeth on the movable and fixed cheliceral digits, and the shape of the insemination apparatus (usually reported in phytoseiid literature as spermatheca or spermathecal apparatus) (Beard, 2001;Kolodochka, 2005;Castro et al, 2010;Kreiter & Tixier, 2010;Ferragut & Ueckermann, 2012;Stathakis et al, 2012;Tsolakis et al, 2012). When the above characters are not sufficient for the definition of a species, biological tests or DNA analyses can be helpful to clarify complex situations (Tixier et al, 2011).…”

Considerations on systematics of the Phytoseiidae (Acari: Mesostigmata), with definition of a new species group and description of a new species

The authors debate some aspects of the classification of the Phytoseiidae, especially the subfamily Typhlodrominae. Within this taxon, the rhenanus group is the most numerous species group of Typhlodromus (Anthoseius), with 206 nominal species. Detailed observation of morphological characters of the species in this group showed a considerable variation, suggesting the presence of different natural lineages. The discovery of the new species here described, Typhlodromus (Anthoseius) sandrae Ragusa & Tsolakis n. sp., allowed the definition of the new porathi species group. Definition of the new species group, a dichotomous key as well as the description of the new species are given.
