Abstract
We present results of the inventory of the spider mites of the Massane Forest Nature Reserve made during several field samplings from 2013 to 2017. Nineteen species have been recorded, which represents more than one third of the known spider mite fauna in France. Among them, three new species were disclosed and are described: Bryobia (Bryobia) alberensis sp. nov. collected on Phyteuma spicatum and Helichrysum stoechas, B. (Periplanobia) polymorpha sp. nov. on Genista pilosa and Tetranychus visigothus sp. nov., on Eryngium campestre, respectively. In addition, three spider mite species, Bryobia (Periplanobia) serifiotica, Eotetranychus aurantii and Eotetranychus fagi are recorded from France for the first time and three plant species are recorded as new host plants for tetranychid mites. The species delineation of B. (P.) polymorpha sp. nov., that presented large variation in dorsal setae length and shape, was investigated using a combination of morphological and molecular data. This approach allowed us to conclude that, despite such variations in a morphological key character, all the specimens observed belong to the same species.
期刊介绍：
Acarologia is a free open-access journal. Please help us by submitting manuscripts in accordance with following instructions.
All manuscripts which do not conform to the instructions will be returned to authors without the benefit of review.
Acarologia publishes the results of original research on all aspects of Acarology.
The journal policy is that taxonomic descriptions should include several species within a same genus/family, when possible.
The editors reserve the right to refuse manuscripts when authors intentionally divide individual species descriptions of the same genus/family into distinct publications.
Single species descriptions should be clearly justified based on their scientific interest.
