Two new species of the genus Papillacarus (Acari: Oribatida: Lohmanniidae) from caves of Southern Vietnam

摘要

An annotated checklist of oribatid mite taxa from three caves of Dong Nai Biosphere Reserve (Southern Vietnam) is provided. We recorded 33 species, 29 genera and 16 families, of which 10 species, five genera and two families were found in Vietnam forthe first time. Three species, Malaconothrus variosetosus, Discoppia cylindrical and Machuella lineata, are for the first time recorded from the Oriental region. Two new cave species of the genus Papillacarus are described. Papil-lacarus indistinctus sp.nov. is morphologically most similar to Papillacaruspolygonatus Ermilov & Anichkin, however, it differs from the latter by the types of neotrichal setae, length of notogastral setae, morphology of some genital setae, epimeral setal formula, number of subcapitular setae m and palptarsal setae. P. polysetosus sp. nov. is morphologically most similar to Papillacarus jinggangshanensis Chen, Yang & Liang and P. konglinensis Chen & Yang, but differs from both by body size, body surface, length of certain notogastral setae, number of subcapitular setae m, and epimeral setal formula. An identification key to the Vietnamese species of Papillacarus is presented.
