A Faunistic Study On Eriophyoidea From Hinan Island Of China(acari:Prostigmata)

Eriophyoid mite species are the smallest groups in agricultural mites.They are the important pest mites on crops,vegetables,flowers,garden plants and Chinese herbal medicine plants.Hainan is a province with much richer animal and plant species resources.However,the eriophyoid mite species of Hainan have not been conducted an investigation systematically.This dissertation is a comprehensive study on the Eriophyoidea in Hainan Province of China.The study is good for us to further understand and protect the resources of eriophyoid mites and lay a foundation for evaluating the classification system of Eriophyoidea.New species in this study:Phytoptidae:Trisetacus glabrifolia sp.nov.on Evodia glabrifolia(Rutaceae).Eriophyidae:Bawangis formosanae sp.nov.on Castanopsis formosana Hay.(Fagaceae),Paracaridilophus retusus sp.nov.on Fissistigma retusum(Levl.)Rehd.(Annonaceae),Paraisoannulus machiles sp.nov.on Machilus gamblei King ex Hook.f.(Lauraceae),Pentacecidophyes xinglongis sp.nov.on Litchi chinensis Sonn.(Sapindaceae),Eriophyes oligophlebiae sp.nov.on Acronychia oligophlebia Merr.(Rutaceae),Proartacris hainanensis sp.nov.on Flueggea virosa(Roxb.ex Willd.)Voigt.(Phyllanthaceae),Taijutarus glaucescensis sp.nov.on Diploclisia glaucescens(B1.)Diels(Menispermaceae),Parategonotus viburnumis sp.nov.on Viburnum odoratissimum Ker-Gawl(Adoxaceae),Tegonotus trachycarpus sp.nov.on Trachycarpus fortunei(Arecaceae),Phyllocoptruta balansis sp.nov.on Bridelia balansae Tutcher.(Euphorbiaceae),Phyllocoptruta cochinchinensis sp.nov.on Cratoxylum cochinchinense Blume(Guttiferae),Phyllocoptruta hungmaoensix sp.nov.on Phoebe hungmaoensis S.Lee(Lauraceae),Epitrimerus danzhouicus sp.nov.on Ficus gibbosa Blume(Moraceae),Epitrimerus dioscoreaepersimilis sp.nov.on Dioscorea persimilis Prain&Burk.(Dioscoreaceae),Criotacus homalium sp.nov.on Homalium ceylanicum(Gardn.)Benth.(Flacourtiaceae),Xinglongarus racemose sp.nov.on Barringtonia racemosa(Linn.)Blume ex DC.(Lecythidaceae),Hainanarus longusolanidion sp.nov.on Antidesma montanum B1.(Euphorbiaceae),Aculus avicennae sp.nov.on Zanthoxylum avicennae(Rutaceae),Tegolophus liangyuanicus sp.nov.on Litchi chinensis Sonn.(Sapindaceae),Tegolophus glabrifolius sp.nov.on Tetradium glabrifolium(Champ.Ex Benth.)Hartley(Rutaceae),Tegolophus breyniafruiticosae sp.nov.on Breynia fruticosa(Linn.)Hook.F.(Euphorbiaceae),Tegolophus cymbopogus sp.nov.on Cymbopogon tortilis(J.Presl)A.Camus(Poaceae).Diptilomiopidae:Diptilomiopus cayratus sp.nov.on Cayratia japonica(Thunb.)Gagnep.(Vitaceae),Diptilomiopus cochinchinensus sp.nov.on Cratoxylum cochinchinense Blume(Guttiferae),Diptilomiopus diaoluoicus sp.nov.on Eurya hainanensis(Kobuski)H.T.Chang(Theaceae),Diptilomiopus engelhardter sp.nov.on Engelhardtia roxburghiana Wall.(Juglandaceae),Diptilomiopus retusus sp.nov.on Fissistigma retusum(Levl.)Rehd.(Annonaceae),Neorhynacus altingus sp.nov.on Altingia obovata Merr.&Chun(Hamamelidaceae),Konola pingis sp.nov.on Machilus pingii Cheng(Lauraceae).Eriophyoid mite species on fruit trees and crops:Phyllocoptruta oleivora(Ashmead,1879)on Citrus sp.L.(Rutaceae);Aculus amygdali Xue&Hong,on Amygdalus persica L.(Rosaceae);Diptacus persicae Xue,Song&Hong,on Amygdalus persica L.(Rosaceae);Aculops pelekassi(Keifer,1959)on Citrus reticulata Blanuo(Rutaceae),Zanthoxylum bungeanum Maxim(Rutaceae),Poncirus trifoliata(Linn.)Raf.(Rutaceae)and Amygdalus persica L.(Rosaceae);Tegolophus zizyphagus(Keifer),1939 on Ziziphus jujuba Mill.and Ziziphus montana Smith(Rhamnaceae).Eriophyoid mite species on crops:Calacarus carinatus(Green,1890)on Camellia sinensis(L.)O.Ktze.(Theaceae),Camellia japonica L.(Theaceae)and Viburnum opulus L.(Caprifoliaceae);Acaphylla steinwedenik Keifer,1943 on Camellia sp.L.,Camellia oleifera Abel and Camellia japonica L.(Theaceae).In total,there are 3 families,53 genera and 81 species,7.65%of the Eriophyoidea of China,including 30 new species.The keys to the families,subfamilies and genera(record in China)are shown.50 species which are collected and studied by the author are described and illustrated.The location of this study is representative because of the plants here are representative of Hainan Island.Flora distribution of Eriophyoid mites in Hainan Island:typical oriental species accounted for 22.22%,the endemic species accounted for 69.14%,widely distributed species in the world accounted for 8.64%.
