Three new species and a new record of tenuipalpid mites (Acari: Tenuipalpidae) from Hungary

Abstract

Three new tenuipalpid species are described and illustrated from Hungary: Cenopalpus cumanicus sp. nov., Cenopalpus adventicius sp.nov.and Tenuipalpus budensis sp.nov.(Acari: Tenuipalpidae). The authors give an account of one new record of Cenopalpus spinosus (Donnadieu, 1875) found on woody host plants, a species that has not previously been recorded in the Hungarian fauna. Additional species encountered during these surveys are: Brevipalpus lewisi (McGregor, 1949), Cenopalpus pulcher (Canestrini and Fanzago, 1876), Pentamerismus orego- nensis McGregor, 1949, and Pentamerismus taxi (Haller, 1877)
