Phytoseiid Mites

We report on a survey of phytoseiid mites associated with medicinal plants in West Bengal, India. Thirteen species were collected during the study, four of which are described as new species in the subgenus Typholodromus (Anthoseius) De Leon, 1959. The new species are Typhlodromus (Anthoseius) bulbosis Karmakar et al. sp. nov., Typhlodromus (Anthoseius) bengalensis Karmakar et al. sp. nov., Typhlodromus (Anthoseius) adhatoda Karmakar et al. sp. nov., and Typhlodromus (Anthoseius) sagaricus Karmakar et al. sp. nov.

Five new species of geckos are described from Sri Lanka by morphological comparison and morphometric analysis leading to review the genus Cnemaspis in the country. The type series of these species were identified from following localities: C. alwisi and C. kumarasinghei from the intermediate zone, C. retigalensis from the dry zone, C. molligodai from the lowland wet zone and C. samanalensis from the mountain region of the wet zone in the country. The high degree of endemicity (90%) shown by Cnemaspis in Sri Lanka could be attributed to geographical isolation. In addition, the taxonomic issue of C. jerdonii scalpensis is discussed and the species C. scalpensis is errected.

The phytoseiid mites of the Cape Verde archipelago are scarcely known. We report the results of a survey conducted on the islands of Santiago and Santo Antão, where phytoseiids were collected from native, cultivated and invasive plants. Fourteen species were collected, four of which represent new records for the islands. One new species, Typhlodromus (Anthoseius) macrodactylus Ferragut sp. nov., is described and illustrated. We describe the unknown male of Amblyseius neolargoensis van der Merwe, provide a redescription of the male of Euseius fustis (Pritchard & Baker) and additional morphological information for all examined species.
