Abstract: |
|
|
|
Neopodocinum
caputmedusae (Berlese, 1908) and N. meridionalis (Sellnick,
1931) are recorded from the Iberian fauna for the first time, and
described. N. caputmedusae was found on Copris hispanicus
(L.), and N. meridionalis on two new hosts, Trypocopris
pyrenaeus Carpentier, 1825 and Jekelius (Jekelius) albarranicus
(Wagner, 1928). The idiosomal chaetotaxy, poroidotaxy and adenotaxy of
these two species are illustrated. |
