Abstract

Spider mite surveys conducted in Rio Grande do Sul state, Brazil, allowed us to provide the redescription of Tetranychus armipenis Flechtmann & Baker (Tetranychidae) from specimens collected on native plant species from Pampa biome, Rio Grande do Sul state. A new species of spider mite, Aponychus mauritianumsp. nov. is described and illustrated based on specimens collected from Solanum mauritianum Scop. (Solanaceae) in the municipality of Lajeado in the same state. New hosts for Atrichoproctus uncinatus Flechtmann and Schizotetranychus oryzae Rossi de Simons are also reported.
