“…Many previous descriptions of phytoseiid species did not include any information regarding the dorsal solenostomes, probably due to difficulties to observe them on slide-mounted specimens by using the low quality of microscopes at that time. A complete set of dorsal solenostomes (seven pairs), however, has been stably known in some groups of phytoseiid mites, such as in the genus Amblyseius Berlese (Papadoulis et al . 2009).…”

“…2018). Therefore, a series of identification keys established by many phytoseiid experts are used to separate closely related species based on the number of dorsal solenostomes in the aforementioned genera (Ragusa di Chiara & Tsolakis 1994; Kolodochka 2006; Papadoulis et al . 2009; Kreiter et al .…”

Many previous descriptions of Phytoseiidae (Acari: Mesostigmata) species lack some important morphological characteristics including the number of dorsal solenotomes (gland pores). However, the importance of the presence or absence of a single pair of solenostomes to identify two distinct species in some phytoseiid genera, such as Kampimodromus Nesbitt and Neoseiulus Hughes has previously been confirmed by molecular studies in several cases. Neoseiulus marginatus (Wainstein) was originally described from Kazakhstan, a country located in Central Asia, based on the specimens collected from herbaceous plants. It was subsequently reported and redescribed from a series of Western Palearctic countries. However, the material first redescribed from Crimea and thereafter from Armenia, Greece, Israel, and Turkey, by having gd5 solenostomes, is distinct from the original N. marginatus described by Wainstein. Indeed, our examinations of its type specimens confirmed that gd5 pores are consistently absent in the type series of N. marginatus. Therefore, this species is redescribed and illustrated based on the female lectotype. In addition, N. pseudomarginatus sp. nov., a widely distributed species in the Western Palearctic countries, which has seven pairs of solenostomes is described as a new taxon for science. Furthermore, our examinations of the type specimens of N. polyporus (Wainstein) indicated that it should be considered as a junior synonym of N. marginatus, as already suggested in earlier studies.
