Five new eriophyoid mites infesting weeds of the family Poaceae are described and illustrated from Egypt. They are Abacarus stagninis sp. nov. from Echinochloa stagnina (Retz.) P. Beauv., vagrants in grooves between veins on the upper leaf surface, causing discoloration of the leaves; and four new species from genus Aceria (A. echinochloae sp. nov., A. barnyardi sp. nov., and A. stagninis sp. nov.) from E. stagnina and E. crus–galli (L.) Beauv., and Aceria pennisetosa sp. nov., from Pennisetum purpureum Schumach. These species are vagrants underneath inner surface of the leaf sheath around stem and no symptoms were observed. However, A. barnyardi sp. nov. is a vagrant underneath inner surface of the leaf sheath around stem and are endoparasitic inside tissue of leaves causing rusted leaves.

One new genus and four new species of eriophyoid mites from Britain are described and illustrated: Novophytoptus acu-leatus n. sp. (Phytoptidae) from Juncus squarrosus L. (Juncaceae); Tegnacus unicornutus n. gen. & n. sp. (Eriophyidae)from Carpinus betulus L. (Betulaceae); Calacarus pusillus n. sp. (Eriophyidae) from Calluna vulgaris (L.) Hull (Ericace-ae); and Brevulacus extensus n. sp. (Diptilomiopidae) from Quercus robur L. (Fagaceae). Digital micrographs are alsoprovided for each new taxon. Furthermore, 19 eriophyoid species are confirmed or recorded in Britain for the first time:one species in the family Phytoptidae, Trisetacus ehmanni Keifer from Pinus sylvestris L. (Pinaceae); 13 species belong-ing in the family Eriophyidae, Abacarus acutatus Sukhareva and Aceria eximia Sukhareva from Calamagrostis epigeios(L.) Roth (Poaceae), Acaricalus hydrophylli Keifer from Ilex aquifolium L. (Aquifoliaceae), Aceria exigua (Liro) from C.vulgaris, Acaricalus rubrifoliae Labanowski and Glyptacus fagineae Carmona from Q. robur, Aculus cytisi Labanowskifrom Cytisus scoparius (L.)

H. Wendl. (Are-caceae) from a commercial plant nursery site, and Aceria gilloglii on Pleioblastus distichus (Mitford) Nakai[=Arundinaria pygmaea (Miq.) Asch. & Graebn. var. disticha (Mitford) C.S.

Eriophyoid Mites

We describe two new species and report new occurrences for six species of eriophyid mites (Eriophyoidea: Eriophyidae) in Crimea: Abacarus denticulifer n. sp. from Agropyron cristatum (L.) Gaertn. (Poaceae), Aceria aculiformis Sukhareva 1986 from Melica ciliata L. (Poaceae), Aceria peucedani (Canestrini 1891) from Seseli tortuosum L. (Apiaceae), Anthocoptes recki (Bagdasarian 1972) n. comb. (from Tegonotus) from Pistacia atlantica subsp. mutica (Fisch. & C.A. Mey.) (Anacardiaceae), Epitrimerus inulae Farkas 1963 from Inula germanica L. (Asteraceae), Phyllocoptes sanctus n. sp. from Potentilla recta subsp. obscura (Willd.) (Rosaceae), Phyllocoptes bilobospinosus Chetverikov 2019 (in Chetverikov et al. 2019) from Tamarix spp. (Tamaricaceae), Tegoprionus dentatus (Nalepa 1891) from Galium verum L. (Rubiaceae). For an Indian phyllocoptine mite species associated with Apluda mutica L. (Poaceae), a new combination was proposed: Abacarus muticus (Sur & Chakrabarti 2017) n. comb. (from Mesalox). Mitochondrial COI and D2 28S rDNA sequences of three phyllocoptine species from Crimea were obtained: A. denticulifer n. sp. (GenBank accession numbers MK415989 and MK408623), P. bilobospinosus (MK408624), and P. sanctus n. sp. (MK415988 and MK408622). Comparison of all COI and D2 28S sequences of Eriophyoidea from GenBank showed that sequences JF920111 and JF920110 Aceria tulipae are identical to JF920101 Aceria tosichella, and D2 28S sequence KP297379 Tegolophus sp. is identical to KM111079 Shevtchenkella sp., which indicates either one or more misidentifications or sample contamination. Molecular phylogenetic analyses (a) confirmed the morphology-based assignment of A. denticulifer n. sp. to the Abacarus hystrix s.l. species complex, (b) supported the monophyly of Abacarus hystrix s.l., (c) revealed that the genera Phyllocoptes, Epitrimerus, and Calepitrimerus are paraphyletic, and (d) indicated that Phyllocoptini (including P. sanctus n. sp.), which are associated with Rosaceae and Caprifoliaceae, are monophyletic. The position of P. bilobospinosus was uncertain in all analyses. Based on the results of our study, it is recommended that descriptions of new species in large, putatively paraphyletic genera of Eriophyoidea include comparisons with mite species associated with the same plant family. Our work also provides new evidence that a species in a large complex of cryptic species could have evolved a distinct morphology if it is associated with an endemic plant host restricted to a geographically isolated area.
