New data on Cicaditrombium lorestanensis Noei, 2017 (Acari: Trombidiidae), Achaemenothrombium saboorii Noei, 2021 (Acari: Achaemenothrombiidae) and the family Neothrombiidae
The members of the genus Cicaditrombium Saboori & Lazarboni originally described from Iran, are known as parasites of Hemiptera (Cicadidae) and Lepidoptera (Noctuidae). Larvae of Cicaditrombium lorestanensis Noei were collected at South Khorasan Province ectoparasitic on Chrysolina sp. (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) and Monosteria sp. (Hemiptera: Tingidae), which represent the first known hosts for this species. Larvae of Achaemenothrombium saboorii were collected at South Khorasan Province, Iran ectoparasitic on Erebidae, Noctuidae, Nymphalidae (Lepidoptera); the family Nymphalidae is recorded as a new host. A hitherto undescribed larva belonging to the family Neothrombiidae was found parasitizing Rhipicephalus sanguineus. This is the first record of a member of the family Ixodidae (Acari: Parasitiformes: Ixodida) serving as host for a parasitengone larva. Additional metric and meristic data are provided for C. lorestanensis and A. saboorii.
