Resumen
VAZQUEZ-ROJAS, Ignacio M.; ESTRADA-VENEGAS, Edith G. y LOPEZ-CAMPOS, Mercedes G.. Mites of the families Pygmephoridae and Neopygmephoridae (Acari: Pygmephoroidea) from soils in Mexico. Rev. Mex. Biodiv. [online]. 2015, vol.86, n.3, pp.605-612. ISSN 2007-8706. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rmb.2015.05.009.
Mites of the families Pygmephoridae and Neopygmephoridae have been poorly studied in Mexico. Previous records from this group are: Acinogaster (A. ) kansensis from Chiapas, A . (A .) marianae from Veracruz, Pygmephorus americanus from Mexico, some species of Siteroptes from Puebla and Pediculaster thailandensis from Quintana Roo. In this study we provide additional data, including specimens of Neopygmephoridae such as Kerdabania inconspicua , Bakerdania exigua , Pseudopygmephorus agarici , and P. shangaiensis ; and of Pygmephoridae: Mahunkania secunda , Pediculaster ignotus and P. gracilis . Abundant specimens of Pediculaster ignotus were present in garlic crop soil.
