A new subgenus Egeoglandula subgen. nov., has been erected within the water mite genus Neumania Lebert, 1879. This subgenus includes the following four species: Neumania disetus Jin, 1997, Neumania cercalis Jin, 1997, Neumania dolichotricha Jin, 1997 and Neumania navina Cook, 1967. The latter species is recorded for the first time from China. Additionally, three new species of the new subgenus are described: Neumania segrega sp. nov., Neumania palosa sp. nov., Neumania secara sp. nov. These new findings contribute to the knowledge of the genus Neumania from China.

Abstract The 16th International Congress of Acarology was successfully conducted from December 1 to 5, 2022, at the Owen G. Glenn Building, The University of Auckland, in Auckland, New Zealand. The event saw a total of 259 attendees from 32 different countries or regions, with two-thirds of them participating virtually. Besides the opening and closing ceremonies, the congress included (1) five plenary keynote presentations (one each day), (2) 52 invited presentations across eight symposia, 93 presentations in 10 subject sections, and 19 poster flash presentations in two parallel sessions, and (3) 16 poster presentations. This congress was the first of its kind to publish the proceedings before the event began and to provide video recordings for the participants and potentially the wider community.

The genus Typhlodromina (Acari: Phytoseiidae) comprises six species worldwide. Three of them were previously recorded in New Zealand. During our studies of the phytoseiid mites, notable misidentifications were found in mite collections within New Zealand. This paper aims to rectify the taxonomic uncertainties associated with this genus in the country. We conducted a comprehensive examination of specimens deposited in major collections across the country, employing detailed morphological characteristics. Our findings indicate that only two species, T. aristidesi (El Banhawy) and T. musero (Schicha), are present in New Zealand and the prior records of T. eharai Muma and Denmark actually correspond to T. musero (Schicha).
Typhlodromina属（蛔虫科：Phytoseiidae）在全球共有六个物种。其中 3 种以前在新西兰有记录。在我们对植螨的研究过程中，发现新西兰境内的螨类藏品存在明显的识别错误。本文旨在纠正新西兰与该属相关的分类不确定性。我们利用详细的形态特征，对全国各地主要收藏的标本进行了全面检查。我们的研究结果表明，新西兰仅有两个物种：T. aristidesi (El Banhawy) 和 T. musero (Schicha)，而之前记录的 T. eharai Muma 和丹麦实际上对应于 T. musero (Schicha)。

Abstract Diet and social experience during development can have profound influences on the fitness of individuals and subsequently affect population dynamics. Understanding the factors driving population size is fundamental to ecological studies and pest management. In this study, we investigated the interplay between diet-induced plasticity, cannibalism, social interactions, and life history traits in Phytoseiulus persimilis Athias-Henriot, a natural predator of the two-spotted spider mite, Tetranychus urticae Koch. This research explored how varying prey densities and the presence of a non-feeding conspecific during P. persimilis' immature development impacts survival, cannibalism, prey consumption, developmental time, and size at maturity. Results show that survival rates are influenced by prey availability, with an increase in cannibalism observed under low prey density conditions. The presence of non-feeding conspecifics had a significant impact on P. persimilis, leading to increased prey consumption, accelerated immature development, and reduced size at maturity. These findings provide insights into the complex dynamics of predator-prey interactions and offer valuable implications for pest management strategies involving P. persimilis. The influence of diet and social interaction on additional life history traits, such as lifespan and fecundity, should be examined in future studies.

Abstract Phytoseiidae comprised over 2000 described species with different feeding habits. However, the mechanisms of food selection were virtually unknown in most phytoseiid mites. To explore the potential mechanism of odor perception, we compared the type and number of chemosensilla on the tarsi of legs and pedipalps by scanning and transmission electron microscopy in three representative predatory mites, i.e., Phytoseiulus persimilis (specialized predator of Tetranychus), Neoseiulus californicus (selective predator of tetranychid mites), and Amblyseius swirskii (generalist predator). All three species had two types of putatively olfactory sensilla, with a porous vs. grooved surface on the tip of the first pair of legs. Of these, five porous setae were found in each of the three species of predatory mites studied. However, only one grooved seta was found at the tip of the first pair of legs in P. persimilis, and two in A. swirskii and N. californicus. In addition, the pedipalp has nine grooved setae, which were hypothesized to be contact chemosensilla in each of the three species. No porous setae were found on either pedipalp or the other three pairs of legs, i.e., leg II, III and IV. Additionally, we provided a new chaetotactic notation for the tarsus of leg I by considering the type and number of setae based on our observation of the three species of Phytoseiidae studied.
摘要 植物螨科有 2000 多个已描述的物种，它们具有不同的取食习性。然而，大多数植物螨的食物选择机制几乎不为人知。为了探索气味感知的潜在机制，我们通过扫描和透射电子显微镜比较了三种具有代表性的捕食螨，即Phytoseiulus persimilis（专门捕食四膜螨）、Neoseiulus californicus（选择性捕食四膜螨）和Amblyseius swirskii（综合捕食者）腿跗蹠和足跗蹠上化学感器的类型和数量。这三个物种都有两种类型的假定嗅觉感受器，第一对腿的顶端分别有多孔和沟纹表面。其中，在所研究的三种捕食螨中，每种都发现了五个多孔刚毛。然而，在 P. persimilis 的第一对腿的顶端只发现了一个沟状刚毛，在 A. swirskii 和 N. californicus 的第一对腿的顶端发现了两个沟状刚毛。此外，在这三个物种中，每个物种的脚掌都有 9 根沟槽状刚毛，据推测这些刚毛是接触化学感器。在两只脚掌和其他三对脚（即第二、第三和第四对脚）上均未发现多孔刚毛。此外，我们还根据对所研究的三个物种的观察，考虑了刚毛的类型和数量，为Ⅰ腿的跗蹠提供了一个新的序列标记。

The present study determined the effects of different temperatures on the life history parameters and development of Typhlodromus athiasae Porath and Swirski (Acari: Phytoseiidae) for the first time. The study was conducted at 20, 25 and 30°C and the predators fed on Tetranychus urticae Koch (Acari: Tetranychidae) under laboratory conditions. Our results show that temperature significantly affected pre-adult and adult durations of T. athiasae. The adult longevity was calculated as 47.90, 22.88, 19.50 days for females, 26.11, 19.90, 20.46 days for males at 20, 25 and 30°C, respectively. The adult females of T. athiasae laid 15.80 (eggs/female), 17.20 (eggs/female) and 12.38 (eggs/female) eggs at the respective temperatures tested. The highest net reproductive rate (R0= 8.90 offspring/individual) determined at 25°C but no significant difference was found among the other temperatures. The highest intrinsic rate of increase (r= 0.12 day-1) was observed at 25°C and 30°C. Although the highest finite rate of increase (λ= 1.13 day-1) was determined at 25°C, no significant difference was observed between this temperature and 30°C. Also, the shortest mean generation time (T=14.97 day) was obtained at 30°C whereas the longest mean generation time (T=28.39 day) was observed at 20°C. Our results revealed that 25°C was more suitable for mass production even if the female and male of T. athiasae survived and reproduced at all temperatures. Consequently, our present results and the data to be obtained in greenhouse and field conditions will reveal the potential of T. athiasae as a biological control agent of T. urticae.

The samples were collected at weekly intervals between April and October from 2011 to 2014 on rosaceous plants and Quercus trees in Ankara, Turkey. Twelve spider mite species (Acari: Tetranychidae), Amphitetranychus viennensis (Zacher), Schizotetranychus ibericus Reck, Tetranychus urticae Koch, T. turkestani (Ugarov & Nikolskii), Eoteteranychus populi (Koch), E. pruni (Oudemans), E. coryli Reck, E. tiliarium (Hermann) Panonychus ulmi (Koch) (Tetranychinae), Bryobia rubrioculus (Scheuten), B. praetiosa Koch and B. sp. (Bryobiinae) were identified in Ankara. Schizotetranychus ibericus Reck, 1947 is a new record for Turkey. Tetranychus urticae and A. viennensis occurred in all the sampling localities, while S. ibericus was collected only on a Quercus sp. (Fagaceae). Tetranychus urticae Koch (Tetranychidae) was the most abundant and common species while some other species were represented by only two specimens such as Eotetranychus populi and E. tiliarum (Hermann). Apple harbored the highest number of spider mite species (9) while Prunus mahaleb and Quercus had only 2 and 1 species, respectively. The preferred hosts plants were Malus domestica (1007), Prunus domestica (749) and Prunus avium (479), while Prunus armeniaca (164), Prunus mahaleb (66) and Quercus sp. (17) were less preferred hosts. Collection data and geographical distribution of these species are provided. The checklist of the previous identified Tetranychinae species of Turkey is provided.
