Abstract

Thirteen species of macrochelid mites belonging to the genera Holostaspella, Macrocheles, Neopodocinum and Glyptholaspis were collected from a nest of honey bee Apis dorsata dorsata at Bogor Botanical Garden, Bogor, West Java, Indonesia. Of these, one species was described as new to science, two species were recorded from Indonesia for the first time, and all species were recorded from nest of Apis dorsata dorsata for the first time. Macrocheles nidus sp. nov. is similar to some species of scutatus subgroup, but it is discernible from the latter by the pilosity of dorsal setae.

Abstract

Eight mite species of the family Macrochelidae (Acari: Gamasida) were collected from the body surface of dung beetles in Baluran National Park, East Java, Indonesia. Of these, one species, Macrocheles subwallacei sp. nov., was describe as new to science. Female of Macrocheles crispa (Berlese, 1910) was rediscribed and the male was described for the first time. The remaining six species were Neopodocinum  jaspersi (Oudemans, 1900), M. dispar (Berlese, 1910), M. hallidayi Walter & Krantz, 1986, M. entetiensis Hartini & Takaku, 2005, M. jabarensis Hartini & Takaku, 2003 and M. persimilis Hartini, Dwibadra & Takaku, 2007.Key words: Acari, Macrochelidae, dung beetles, Baluran, East Java, Indonesia

Abstract

As a result of our investigation in Lengguru area, Kaimana, West Papua, Indonesia, 6 species belonging to 2 genera of macrochelid mites(Acari: Gamasida: Macrochelidae) were collected from body surface of dung beetles (Scarabaeidae). Of these, one is undescribed species Macrocheles kaimanaensis sp. nov., and Macrocheles hallidayiWalter & Krantz, 1986is new record from Papua and West Papua (Indonesian parts of New Guinea Island).Male and deutonymph of Holostaspella rosichoni Hartini & Takaku, 2006 originally described from Papua were recorded for the first time. The remaining three species were M. amaliae Hartini, 2008, M. dispar (Berlese, 1910) and M. waigeoensis Hartini, 2008, which were previously collected from Raja Ampat, West Papua, and they are new to location in West Papua.       In total, 18 macrochelid species of 3 genera, including the results of the present study, have been recorded from New Guinea Island. Of these 10 species are endemic to New Guinea Island, and some are also distributed in Australia. So, macrochelid mite fauna of the island is clearly different from Indonesian fauna. Besides, macrochelids in the island tend to have characteristic patterns in some morphological features, e.g., 27 or 29 paris of dorsal setae, dinstinct pilose or plumose dorsal setae, and so on.
