Remarks
.
Cosmolaelaps sejongi
was described from
Republic of Korea
(
Keum
et al
., 2017
). It has been found from soil around roots of an oak tree (
Keum
et al
., 2017
), and is now recorded in
Russia
for the first time, in the nest of
L
.
umbratus
. Our specimens agree well with the description given by
Keum
et al
. (2017)
. The species is easily recognised by the distinctive shape of the post-anal seta (thickened, sparsely barbed and apically hook shaped), which is inserted on a small tubercle (
Figs 46, 49
); dorsal shield setae thick and long, most setae long enough to reach well past the base of next posterior seta, and
Z5
sparsely barbed, longer and thicker than
J5
(
Figs 45, 47
); sternal setae short, not reaching base of following setae (
Figs 46, 48
); soft opisthogastric cuticle bearing 16 pairs setae,
Jv5
well thickened, apically hook shaped and subequal in length with post-anal seta (
Figs 46, 49
).
