摘要
Mites of the family Podapolipidae (Acari: Heterostigmatina) are permanent parasites of insects. During an intensive survey of insect parasitic mites in Iran, a new species of the genus Eutarsopolipus Berlese, 1911 (Acari: Heterostigmatina: Podapolipidae), belonging to the acanthomus species group, was found from the subelytra of Amara (Amara) aenea (De Geer, 1774) (Coleoptera: Carabidae). In this article, Eutarsopolipus amaraceus Tajodin and Hajiqanbar sp. nov. is described and compared with the most closely related species. In addition, keys to world species of all stages of the acanthomus group are provided, and the host range of all representatives of the group is discussed.
