Notes and a key to separate normal and heteromorphic males of Pyemotes giganticus Cross, Moser, and Rack and P. Dimorphus Cross and Moser (Acari: Pyemotidae)

Informally Refereed

Abstract

Photomicrographs of normal and heteromorphic males of Pyemotes giganticus Cross, Moser, and Rack (1981) and P. dimorphus Cross and Moser (1975) illustrate differences and similarities between the species. The key to species by Cross et al. (1981) is emended to accommodate the separation of males of these two species.
