Seventy-two females, one male, seven deutonymphs and two protonymphs specimens of Ledermuelleriopsis aminiae Nazari & Khanjani, 2017 were collected from Pulumur Valley, Turkey. Descriptions and illustrations of the nymph stages on the collected specimens of the species were given and the adult specimens were briefly described. This is the first record of L. aminiae from Turkey, and the first description of nymphal stages of the species. In addition, abnormalities in the number of intercoxal and aggenital setae in the female and male specimens of L. aminiae were mentioned here.

The quality of the important host plants affects the survival, development, and reproduction of the two-spotted spider mite, Tetranychus urticae Koch. The biology and life table parameters of T. urticae, on four cultivars of common Regular and Sweet pea and Polesta & G6 bean, were examined under laboratory conditions of 27 ± 1 ℃, 60–80% R.H. and photoperiod 16L: 8D h. Both males and females of T. urticae successfully developed from egg to adult on different host plants. Results revealed that the survival rate varied from 53% on Regular pea to 99% on G6 bean cultivars. The developmental time from egg to adult was significantly influenced among the tested host plant cultivars and ranged from 9.75 days on G6 bean to 20.42 days on Regular pea (p = 0.00). Female longevity was significantly longer on Regular and Sweet pea than on Polesta and G6 bean. The highest fecundity per female was recorded on G6 bean, but the lowest was on Regular pea cultivars. Consequently, population growth parameters were also significantly influenced by different host plants. The net reproductive rate (R0), the intrinsic rate of natural increase (r), and the finite rate of increase (λ) of T. urticae were significantly higher on G6 bean than the other three cultivars. Also, the longest mean generation time (T) and doubling time (DT) were noted on Regular pea, but the shortest value on G6 and Polesta bean cultivars. Obtained results based on the intrinsic rate of natural increase revealed that G6 and Polesta bean were more suitable than the two pea cultivars as hosts for T. urticae. Therefore, the lower population growth rate of the T. urticae could be the result of antibiotic resistance in the cultivars Regular and Sweet pea.

A different species of genus Hypoaspis sensu lato had already been named Hypoaspis (Leptolaelaps) elegans Berlese, 1918.

For this reason, I propose Hypoaspis oryctes nom. nov. as a replacement name for Hypoaspis elegans Joharchi, Ostovan & Babaeian, 2014. The new specific name, H. oryctes, is taken from its host beetle, Oryctes elegans Prell. (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae).

Petrobia Murray, 1877 genus belong to the Tetranychidae family , BryobiinaeBerlese subfamily and Petrobiini Reck, 1952 tribe. Petrobia comprised three subgenera: Mesotetranychus Reck,1948, Petrobia Murray, 1877 and Tetranychina Wainstein, 1960(Mahdavi et al. 2018). By the year 2019, there were 80 species belong to Tetranychidae from Iran and among them 4 species (P. brevipes Reck & Bagdasarian, 1949, P. hordei Khanjani, Khanjani & Seeman, 2016, P. latens (Muller, 1776) and P. norbakhshi Khanjani, Khanjani & Seeman, 2016) belong to Petrobia (Petrobia) (Migeon & Dorkeld, 2006-2019). In this paper we report the first record of P. (P.) pseudotetranychina Auger & Flechtmann, 2009 (Acariformes: Tetranychoidea: Tetranychidae) from Iran collected on Salsola sp. (Amaranthaceae), which is also the second report of this species in the world. Moreover, this paper introduces two new host plants (Capparis spinosa Linnaeus and Cydonia oblonga Miller) for tetranychid mites from Iran. Capparis spinosa is also the first record for the world. To collect mite species, leaves and sheaths of Salsola sp. were collected in bags and taken to the laboratory. Mites were removed from infested plants by dipping-washing-filtering method (Boller, 1984). This solution was filtered through a sieve (400 mesh) and then mites were washed with ethanol 70% into a Petridish. They were mounted in Hoyer’s medium. Specimens were examined using an Olympus® BX43 phase contrast compound microscope.

A molecular characterization based on mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit I gene was used to genotype central-southern Iranian populations of Varroa destructor for the first time. A 570 bp segement was amplified by Polymerase Chain Reaction and digested with two restriction enzymes. Digestion of PCR products with XhoI produced fragments of 300 and 270 bp in all samples, whereas digestion with SacI did not produce any digested fragments. Results suggest that all samples belong to the K haplotype previously described for V. destructor in the literature. A total of 22 sequences of Iranian samples (418bp) were registered for the first time in NCBI.

The species Olopachys ( Olopachys ) hallidayi was collected from orchards from Maragheh and adjacent villages, East Azerbaijan Province, using Berlese-Tullgren funnel during the autumn 2016. The specimens were cleared in Nesbitt's fluid, then mounted on microscope slides using Hoyer's medium, and finally dried in an oven at 45–50 °C for 3–4 weeks. The Iranian specimens of Olopachys hallidayi are very similar to the Turkish ones according to the morphometric characteristics and the original description prepared by Ozbek (2014), but they have wide ranges for some characteristics. The Iranian specimens were larger than the Turkish ones in length and width of dorsal shield, although the ratio was smaller in the Iranian specimens [740−875 long, 480−580 wide, the ratio: 1.47−1.54 in the Iranian specimens; 700−780 long, 430−470 wide, the ratio: 1.54−1.69 in the Turkish specimens (Ozbek 2014)].
