Berlese's Primitive Oribatid Mites Author van der Hammen, L. text Zoologische Verhandelingen 1959 40 1 93 http://www.repository.naturalis.nl/document/148866 journal article ORI111 0DC6B575-3CB3-41C1-A3EC-850520AE4487 Pseudotritia vestita (Berlese, 1913) Hoploderma vestitum Berlese , 1913, p. 103, pl. 8 figs. 103, 103a 1). Although the species is not mentioned by Lombardini (1936), two cotypes (nos. 141/17, 21) are still present in the Collection; they originate from the type-locality Semarang (Java), but one slide has only Java as locality. I could study the animal in lateral view only. This study as well as Berlese's drawing (the lateral view of the aspis for instance) point to the Euphthiracaridae (Berlese erroneously classified the species with Hoploderma !). I have classified the species with Pseudotritia because of the absence of a ridge on the aspis. 1) In the explanation of pl. 8 an erroneous reference is made to fig. 102a.
