Abstract
According to the database of Demite et al.(2021), about 90 valid species of Phytoseiidae have been recorded for the fauna of Iran. Here, we present a new report on Amblyseius pseudaequipilusWainstein & Abbasova (1974) collected from decayed wood material in Zanjan province, northwest of Iran.Amblyseiuspseudaequipilus’ original description was adequate for identification purposes. However, due to a mistake in adenotaxy, we decided to re-describe the species accompanied by detailed illustrations and a complete set of measurements.
