Mahunka S.: A Barcsi borókás Oribatida faunája (Acari). - The Oribatid fauna of the Old Juniper Woodland of Barcs, Hungary (Acari: Oribatida)

Moritziella uherkovichi sp. n. Measurements: Length: 218-232 /ал, width: 104-114

/im. Prodorsum: Rostrum conical, rostral setae arising on dorsal surface, all .being longer and thicker than lamellar ones, well ciliate /Fig. 1/. Ratio of prodorsal setae ro • in = exa le. Exobothridial setae conspicuosly thick /Fig. 3/. Well developed, divided costulae present, a pair of typical interbothridial laths alfeo present, exobothridial setae arising among them. Bothridium with a large tubercle on its posterior border. Exobothridial surface well granulate, a similar stronger ornamentation present on postero-lateral part of exopedial surface. Sensillus clavate, its head blunt with short spicules arranged in two rows. Notogaster: Crista absent. Ten pairs of fine simple setae present, setae ta similar to te or ti, setae p~ and p., slightly shorter than tha others /Fig. 1/. Goxisternal region: The surface near to mentum granulate, as in exobothridial region, other part polygonate /Fig. 2/. Bordures well developed, composing an interlace of network. Bordures 3 strongly curved posteriorly. Apodemes short, Epimeral setae short, lateral ones slightly longer than median ones. Setae lc arising on pedotecta 1. Anogenital region: Genital opening also framed posteriorly. Four pairs of simple genital setae present. Aggenital setae only slightly longer than genital ones. Adanal setae ad-, in postanal, ad„ in adanal, ad, in preanal position. Setae ad, arising nearer to aggenital ones than to ad„. Pori iad in apoanal position. Material examined: Holotype /1087-HO84/: H-1621; 12 paratypes from the same sample. Holotype and 9 paratypes /1087-PO84/: deposited in the Hungarian Natural Museum, Budapest, 2 paratypes in the Department of Natural History, Janus Pannonius Museum, Pécs and 1 paratype in the Museum d'Histoire Naturelle, Geneva. Remarks: The ranging of the new species is rather problematic, because it is distinguished from the type species of the genus Rectoppia SUBIAS, 1980 R. fasciatum /PAOLI, 1908/ by the presence of setae ta, the weak crista and by the situation of pori iad. However, the ranging of the other genera is also problematic. I dedicate the new species to my friend Dr. Á. Uherkovich /Pécs, Hungary/, the organisor of the research programme aming to explore the biota of the Old Juniper Woodland at Bares. /?/ Rectoppia quadrimaculata /EVANS, 1952/ comb. n. The species known only in a few localities from Europe. Without the exami-. nation of the type-series the identity of the newly collected specimens and the type is slightly uncertain. The description of our specimens follows hereunder. Prodorsum: Rostrum wide, rostral setae arising on its dorsal surface /Fig. 4/. Ratio of prodorsal setae: ro le = ex in /Fig. 6/. Costula absent two pairs of conspicuous light spots present between interlamellar setae. Lateral surface of prodorsum well chitinized but without granules. Sensillus clavate, its head with strong cilia. Notogaster: In the dorsosejugal region a weak crista present. Ten pairs of simple notogastral setae present, setae ta short, but clearly visible. Coxisternal region: Well-developed sternal apodeme or bordures absent, other apodemes and bordures strong, bo. sej. characterized by double lines. 200
