New Perscheloribates species (Acari, Oribatida, Scheloribatidae) phoretic on beetles (Insecta, Coleoptera)
View through CrossRef
Two new species of oribatid mites of the genus Perscheloribates (Oribatida, Scheloribatidae), phoretic on passalid and zopherid beetles (Coleoptera), are described from the Philippines and U.S.A., based on adults. Perscheloribates paracuriosus n. sp. differs from Perscheloribates curiosus Ermilov, 2016 by the length and morphology of notogastral and adanal setae, the presence of lateral keel-shaped ridge, and the absence of custodium. Perscheloribates parakontumensis n. sp. differs from Perscheloribates kontumensis Ermilov and Frolov, 2019 by the morphology of notogastral setae and the absence of body sculpturing and setae it on leg tarsi I–III.
