Two new species of Cunaxa (Acari, Prostigmata, Cunaxidae) from South-East Asia with a world key to the genus

Two new mite species of the family Cunaxidae (Acari, Prostigmata)-Cunaxa asiatica sp. nov. and C. smileyi sp. nov.- are described from Vietnam, based on females. Cunaxa asiatica sp. nov. is similar to C. doxa (Chaudri, 1980) in having the medial hysterosomal shield smooth and bearing setae c1-e1, c2, but differs from the latter by the presence of 1 sts, finger-like palpofemoral apophysis and smooth setae c1-e1 on basifemora IV (vs. 2 sts, uncinate palpofemoral apophysis and spiculate c1-e1 in C. doxa). Cunaxa smiley sp. nov. is similar to C. oblongostriata Kaluz and Ermilov, 2022 in having 4-4-4-4 sts on telofemora I-IV and 2 solenidia on genu II, but differs from the latter by the presence of 3-3-3-0 sts on basifemora I-IV, 1 asl and 5 sts on genu IV, and well developed medial hysterosomal shield (vs. basifemora I-IV setal formula of 3-3-3-1 sts, genu IV bearing 7 sts, and the hysterosomal medial shield absent in C. oblongostriata).
