Mites Of The Family Laelapidae In Venezuela (Acarina: Laelapidae), Deane P. Furman

Brigham Young University Science Bulletin, Biological Series

This publication presents the results of an extensive survey of symbiotic laelapid mites of vertebrates from Venezuela. Over 40,000 vertebrates were examined from a wide variety of life zones and localities. The laelapid fauna represented includes 1 new genus, Hymenolaelpas, and 7 genera previously described: Laelaps, Mysolaelaps, Tur, Steptolaelaps, Neoparalaelaps, Gigantolaelaps, and Androlaelaps. The genera are represented by 51 species and subspecies, of which 8 are described as new. Previously unknown males and immatures of several species are described. Gigantolaelaps versteegi ( Oudemans ) is redescribed from type material; G. wolffsohni (Oudemans) is redescribed from Oudemans’ original material; G. peruviana …

Venezuelan Nycteribiid Batflies (Diptera: Nycteribiidae), Lindolpho R. Guimarães Sep 1972

Venezuelan Nycteribiid Batflies (Diptera: Nycteribiidae), Lindolpho R. Guimarães

Brigham Young University Science Bulletin, Biological Series

Eleven species of Nycteribiidae, all belonging to the genus Basilia, are reported from Venezuela. Of these, two (tuttlei and typhlops) are described as new and four (anomala, dubia, juquiensis, and tiptoni) are recorded for the first time. B. anomala is the first species with three tergal plates to be found in South America. Synonymies, previous localities, and host records are given for all species, as well as new records and comments. Geographical distribution and host-parasite associations are discussed. Field parties of the Smithsonian Venezuelan Project obtained the material on which this paper is based.
