“…surveys, behaviour, biocontrol), are most probably based on specimens compatible with Athias-Henriot's concept (1977), largely because most available species descriptions, as well as most if not all identification keys (e.g. Pickett & Gilstrap, 1984;Ueckermann & Loots, 1988;Ehara & Amano, 1998;Denmark et al, 1999;Zhang, 2003;Papadoulis et al, 2009;Faraji et al, 2011;Rocha et al, 2014;Tixier et al, 2016), are in agreement with the species concept of N. californicus sensu Athias-Henriot (1977).…”

In 1954, McGregor described two species of phytoseiids from lemon, in California, USA: Typhlodromus californicus McGregor and T. mungeri McGregor, the former represented by one male, and the latter by two females. Since its description, T. mungeri was synonymised under T. californicus, and the name T. (now Neoseiulus) californicus has been used extensively to represent a species that is now commonly used as a biocontrol agent of crop pests worldwide. However, the true identity of the biocontrol agent is uncertain because the original descriptions of T. californicus and T. mungeri were not adequate enough to allow an irrefutable identification, with each description being based on specimens of a single sex. An examination of the types of N. californicus and N. mungeri revealed that they are morphologically identical to the male and female of N. barkeri Hughes, 1948, respectively, and that they are in fact junior synonyms of N. barkeri—and are therefore distinct from the biocontrol agent globally called N. californicus (sensu Athias-Henriot, 1977; see Griffiths, 2015). This is further supported by a comparison with male and female syntypes of N. barkeri, as well as other specimens of N. barkeri including some collected from the type host in the vicinity of the type location (i.e. lemon in southern California, 1952–1958). We redescribe the male and female of both N. barkeri and N. californicus sensu Athias-Henriot (1977), based on representative specimens from at least 14 and 19 populations, respectively. Based on examination of types, we confirm the synonymy of N. mckenziei (Schuster & Pritchard, 1963), N. picketti (Specht, 1968), and N. oahuensis (Prasad, 1968) with N. barkeri, and that the names N. chilenensis (Dosse, 1958b) and N. wearnei (Schicha, 1987) represent the same species as N. californicus sensu Athias-Henriot (1977). We also provide a hypothesis as to why Chant (1959) had erroneously synonymised T. californicus and T. mungeri under T. marinus (Willmann). Finally, we suggest maintaining the prevailing usage of the name N. californicus (McGregor) for the species concept of Athias-Henriot (1977) as followed by subsequent authors, through submission of a separate application to the International Commission of Zoological Nomenclature (ICZN). In the meantime, the current meaning of N. californicus should be maintained until a ruling by the ICZN is made on the application.

“…Neoseiulus Hughes (Acari: Phytoseiidae) is one of the largest genera in the subfamily Amblyseiinae, with about 350 valid species (Beard, 2001;Chant & McMurtry, 2003;Zannou et al, 2006;Papadoulis et al, 2009;Demite et al, 2014;2019). Previously, 17 species of Neoseiulus, from various ecosystems and habitats, including agricultural areas, have been reported for the Turkish fauna (Duzgunes & Kilic, 1983;Ozman & Cobanoglu, 2001;Cobanoglu, 2002;2004;Cakmak & Cobanoglu, 2006;Kasap & Cobanoglu, 2009;Faraji et al, 2011;Doker et al, 2014;2015;2016a).…”

Neoseiulus cinctutus (Livshitz & Kuznetsov)'un Türkiye için ilk kaydı ile Türkiye'de Neoseiulus Hughes (Acari: Phytoseiidae) cinsi türlerinin tanı anahtarı Öz: Neoseiulus cinctutus (Livshitz & Kuznetsov) (Acari: Phytoseiidae) Türkiye faunası için ilk kez kayıt edilmektedir. Bu türün yeniden tanımlaması ve çizimleri, Denizli, Buldan'dan Verbascum sp. (Scrophulariaceae) bitkisinden toplanan dişi bireyler üzerinden verilmiştir. Ayrıca Türkiye'de bulunan Neoseiulus Hughes türlerinin teşhis anahtarı oluşturulmuştur. Bu tür, daha önce Türkiye faunası için bilinen N. marginatus (Wainstein) ve N. neomarginatus Stathakis, Kapaxidi & Papadoulis türlerine morfolojik olarak benzemekte olup, N. cinctutus'un chelicera hareketli parçasında diş bulunmazken, diğer iki türde de bir diş bulunmaktadır.
