... The tritonymph resembles the adult male by the chaetotaxy of the legs and the size of some structures. However, it differs by presenting a clear ecdysial line dorsally on the propodosoma (Fig. 7) (Den Heyer 2006;Castro & Den Heyer 2008b;Paktinat-Saeij et al. 2016b).

Two new species of Cunaxidae, Cunaxoides lajeadensis Wurlitzer & Monjarás-Barrera sp. nov. and Lupaeus waldumirus Wurlitzer & Monjarás-Barrera sp. nov., are described from Ipomoea alba L. (Convolvulaceae) on the edge of an urban forest fragment.
... The genus Neobonzia, erected by Smiley (1992) with Neobonzia moseri as the type species, belongs to the family Cunaxidae Thor, 1902 (Prostigmata: Bdelloidea). The taxonomy of the genus has made progress and there are 25 species described worldwide (Bashir & Afzal, 2009;Den Heyer, 2013;Bashir et al., 2014;Skvarla et al., 2014;Paktinat-Saeij et al., 2016). Whereas, there are only 2 species of the genus, Neobonzia themedae Den Heyer, 1977 and Neobonzia shanghaiensis Liang, 1984, previously recorded in China (Liang, 1983, 1984. ...

This paper presents a new species from China, Neobonzia neomalookensis sp. nov. which is described and illustrated in detail based on adult females and protonymphs. This new species resembles N. malookensis Bashir & Afzal, 2009, but can be easily distinguished by the following features: Palp tibiotarsus with 1 spine-like seta, 1 tubercle and 4 simple setae. Genu III with 1 asl and genu IV with 1 asl. Tibia I with 1 bsl, tarsus I with 3 bsl. A key to females of China is given.

A list of type depositories of new mite species published in two journals (Systematic & Applied Acarology and Zootaxa) during the last five years (2012–2016) is presented in this paper. The 1370 new species are deposited unevenly among 134 collections. The top collection is the Zoological Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences, St. Petersburg, Russia (145 species), which alone accounts for 10% of the total new species, and the top ten collections accounted for 48% of the total. The average number of new species per collection is 10 and over three quarters of the collections are below the average. Just over half (51%) of the collections are in Europe. However, overall there were still more new species deposited in collections in developing counties (741) than developed countries (629). The top country for type depositories of new mite species for each continent is: Russia (199 species) for Europe, Brazil (134 species) for South America, Iran (133 species) for Asia, Australia (87 species) for Oceania, USA (80 species) for North America and South Africa (36 species) for Africa. The top European collections hold type specimens mostly of foreign origin, whereas those of South America, Asia, Africa and Australasia hold type specimens mostly originating from their own countries.
