Ptilonyssus echinatus Berlese y Trouessart, 1889 (Acari, Mesostigmata, Rhinonyssidae) nuevo para la fauna española: estudio morfo-biométrico de la deutoninfa y la protoninfa
[EN] We present a morpho-biometrical study and the first record for Spain of females of Ptilonyssus echinatus Berlese & Trouessart, 1889, using ventral and dorsal drawings and entire biometry. Likewise, we include an extensive morpho-biometrical description (new for the science) of the deutonymp...

| Resumo: | [EN] We present a morpho-biometrical study and the first record for Spain of females of Ptilonyssus echinatus Berlese & Trouessart, 1889, using ventral and dorsal drawings and entire biometry. Likewise, we include an extensive morpho-biometrical description (new for the science) of the deutonymph and the protonymph of this species. Mites were extracted from the nasal cavity of Hirundo rustica L. and Delichon urbica (L.) (Aves, Passeriformes, Hirundinidae) captured in Granada province (Spain). The study of the morphological variability among specimens collected from Hirundo rustica and specimens collected from Delichon urbica allowed us to indicate that these morphological variability depend on host birds and geographic origin of them. For that reason, we consider that different morphology cannot justify the creation of a new species or subespecies as several authors have suggested. |
