Taxonomical and faunistical studies on the Uropodina mites of Greece (Acari: Mesostigmata)

Elaboration of a rich “Berlese” material from Greece yielded twelve Uropodina species from different parts of thecountry. Six of them, namely Trachytes aegrota (C. L. Koch, 1841); Urodiaspis pannonica Willmann, 1951; Uroobovella fracta(Berlese, 1916); Neodiscopoma splendida Kramer, 1882; Uropoda mazsalakiae Kontschán, 2005 and Uropoda minima Kramer,1882, are new to the fauna of Greece. Three species, Trachytes parnonensis sp. nov., Urobovella graeca sp. nov. and Cillibavellas sp. nov. proved to be new to science. With 24 figures.
