Heterodispus cordidiscus n. sp., a new soil mite from Egypt, and remarks on the nominal species H. elongatus Tragardh, 1905 (Acari: Heterostigmatina: Scutacaridae)

摘要

The description of a new Egyptian soil inhabiting scutacarid species, Heterodispus cordidiscus n. sp. (Acari, Heterostigmatina), including female, male and larva, is given. It is the first description of male and larva within the genus Heterodispus Paoli, 1911. The redescription of the nominal species H. elongatus Tragardh, 1905 by Paoli (1911) has been erroneous and we now show that the redescription made by Mahunka (1963) does not describe H. elongatus, either. The incorrectly interpreted species is hereby provided with the new name H. pannonicus n. nom.. A corrigendum for the setal formula of leg I of Hfoveatus Jagersbacher-Baumann and Ebermann, 2012 is given.
