Abstract
Soldanellonyx monardi Walter, 1919, a halacarid species is newly recorded from South Korea, as the second member for the freshwater halacarid mites in Korea after S. chappuisi Walter, 1917 reported from Gossi-gul Cave, a limestone cave at Yeongwol in 1968. It was collected from three wells in the southeastern part of Korean peninsula this year. Korean specimens are well accorded with S. monardi s. str. in having telofemur I less than 1.5 times longer than wide, two spiniform setae on the ventral side of tibia I, relatively longer anterior dorsal plate (slightly longer than its width and about half the length of posterior dorsal plate), and the posterior epimeral plates lacking a dorsal seta. Based on the Korean specimens, a brief table for the morphological differences between adult females and deutonymphs are provided, which shows a tendency of rather consistent increment according to growth in the number of spiniform dorsal setae on telofemora and genua of legs I and II, the number of perigenital setae, and the number of genital acetabula. In this paper, detailed redescription and a brief table for the morphological differences between adult females and deutonymphs of S. monardi are provided.
