Abacarus andrachni sp. n.— similar to A. histrix (Nal), differs by wider smooth dorsal shield and genital valva, lower number of empodial chaetoids and heterosegmented body. Eriophyes parapteridis sp. n.— similar to E. helicantix (K.), differs by orientation and shorter dimensions of dorsal and genital chaetae.
