Abstract
Abstract A new species of water mite from Montenegro, i.e. Atractides milosevici sp. nov., is described, using morphological data and DNA barcodes. Morphologically, the new species is closely related to A. nodipalpis sensu Gerecke, 2003 but differs in its distinct COI barcode sequence, as well as details of the terminal segments of the first legs. Morphological examination of specimens of A. nodipalpis from the Netherlands which belong to the same BIN (BOLD:ACA0209) as the specimens of the nominal species collected near its type locality in Norway reveals that the latter, one of the most common water mite species in running waters in Europe, can be identified by the shape of male genital plate with a distinct anteromedial peg-like fissure. A redescription is given of Atractides nodipalpis (Thor, 1899) based on material from the Netherlands.
期刊介绍：
Systematic and Applied Acarology (SAA) is an international journal of the Systematic and Applied Acarology Society (SAAS). The journal is intended as a publication outlet for all acarologists in the world.
There is no page charge for publishing in SAA. If the authors have funds to publish, they can pay US$20 per page to enable their papers published for open access.
SAA publishes papers reporting results of original research on any aspects of mites and ticks. Due to the recent increase in submissions, SAA editors will be more selective in manuscript evaluation: (1) encouraging more high quality non-taxonomic papers to address the balance between taxonomic and non-taxonomic papers, and (2) discouraging single species description (see new special issues for single new species description) while giving priority to high quality systematic papers on comparative treatments and revisions of multiple taxa. In addition to review papers and research articles (over 4 printed pages), we welcome short correspondence (up to 4 printed pages) for condensed version of short papers, comments on other papers, data papers (with one table or figure) and short reviews or opinion pieces. The correspondence format will save space by omitting the abstract, key words, and major headings such as Introduction.
