Reis & Navia Diptilomiopidae : Rhyncaphytoptinae ( Figs. 3 & 4 ) Diagnosis. Rhyncadicrus n. gen. is a Rhyncaphytoptinae mite with a prominent, deeply-emarginated frontal lobe; palp distal segments (palp, tibia and tarsus) distinctively elongated; palp tarsus with distal setae; prodorsal shield tubercles and scapular seta ( sc ) present, ahead of rear shield margin, tubercles with transversal bases directing sc backwards; coxal seta I ( 1b ) absent; tibial seta I ( l' ) present; genual seta ( l" ) II and femoral seta ( bv ) I and II absent; opisthosoma with submedian ridges convergent and fading above the level of ventral seta f . Among the Rhyncaphytoptinae , it is closest to Chakrabartiella Amrine & Stasny 1994 ; Sakthirhynchus Umapathy & Mohanasundaram 1999 and Hyborhinus Mohanasundaram 1986 , in sharing the absence of coxal seta 1b . However, it differs from Sakthirhynchus in the presence of the prodorsal shield tubercles and scapular seta (sc) (absent in Sakthirhynchus ); from Hyborhinus in the absence of femoral seta ( bv ) I and II (both present in Hyborhinus ); and from Chakrabartiella in the absence of genual seta ( l" ) II (present in Chakrabartiella ). The anterior frontal lobe, deeply emarginated, in the new genus is similar to that of Acadicrus Keifer 1965 and Neoepitrimerus Kuang, Li & Shen 1994 , both genera belong in the Eriophyidae , Phyllocoptinae . Type species. Rhyncadicrus asperulus n.sp. Etymology. The generic designation is a composition of “Rhynca” , from the subfamily Rhyncaphytoptinae to which the new genus belongs, and “ dicrus ”, from the Greek dikros that means forked, which refers to the deeply, emarginated frontal lobe.
