“…Since then, this taxon has been variously treated as a genus (Vitzthum 1942; Hughes 1961, 1976; Evans 1963a; Ishikawa 1972; Domrow 1974, 1979; Evans and Till 1979), a subgenus of Ameroseius (Athias-Henriot 1959, Hajizadeh et al 2013a), or a junior synonym of Ameroseius (Westerboer and Bernhard 1963; Bregetova 1977; Karg 1993, 2005; Halliday 1997; Karg and Schorlemmer 2009; Narita et al 2013b), although it may be easily and reliably separated from Ameroseius by the presence of two posterolateral setae on genu III and tiabiae III–IV (one in Ameroseius ), four proximal denticles on fixed digit of chelicerae (at most three denticles in Ameroseius ), two pairs of opisthogastric setae on ventrianal shield (at most one pair in Ameroseius , but never JV2), two-tined claw on palptarsus (three-tined in Ameroseius ), thickened h1 (similar if compared to other hypostomal setae in Ameroseius ), epistome usually with sharply or obtusely pointed apex (never produced into a single pointed process in Ameroseius ). Therefore, the genus Kleemannia is considered to be a valid genus, and is removed from synonymy with Ameroseius .…”

“…Primoseius currently comprises 12 described species ( bisetae , dipankari , dubitatus , eumorphus , macauleyi , mineiro , parplumosa , plumosoides , plumosa , potchefstroomensis , pseudoplumosa and wahabi ), of which only eight species are considered here to be valid ( bisetae , dipankari , mineiro , parplumosa , plumosoides , plumosa , pseudoplumosa and wahabi ). Narita et al (2013b) classified eight species of „ Ameroseius “ into a species group named plumosus -group ( dipankari , eumorphus , mineiro , parplumosa , plumosa , potchefstroomensis , reticulatus and wahabi ). They defined the group by the following character states, of which some are vague and applicable also for other groups inside the genus: corniculus bifid or trifid; dorsal shield reticulate and without pit-like depressions; 26 or 28 pairs of dorsal shield setae, most of which are lanceolate to leaf-shaped; and five or six pairs of opisthogastric setae, two pairs of which are on ventrianal shield.…”

“…Evans (1963a) retained the generic status of Kleemannia Oudemans, 1930 by adding specific diagnostic characters well distinct from those in Ameroseius Berlese, 1904. Some other authors considered Kleemannia was probably a synonym of Ameroseius (Westerboer and Bernhard 1963; Bregetova 1977; Karg 1993, 2005; Halliday 1997; Karg and Schorlemmer 2009; Narita et al 2013b; a.o.). In this paper, Kleemannia is considered a valid genus (for specific differential characters of the genus see “Remarks” under Kleemannia in the catalogue below).…”

The family Ameroseiidae Evans, 1961 (Acari: Mesostigmata) includes a total of 12 valid and adequately described genera, namely Afrocypholaelaps Elsen, 1972, Ameroseiella Bregetova, 1977, Ameroseius Berlese, 1904, Asperolaelaps Womersley, 1956, Brontispalaelaps Womersley, 1956, Epicriopsis Berlese, 1916, Hattena Domrow, 1963, Kleemannia Oudemans, 1930, Neocypholaelaps Vitzthum, 1942, Pseudoameroseius gen. n., Sertitympanum Elsen & Whitaker, 1985 and Sinoseius Bai & Gu, 1995. One of these genera includes subgenera, namely Kleemannia (Primoseius) Womersley, 1956.All genera are reviewed and re-diagnosed, and a dichotomous key is provided for their identification. Ameroseius (50 species), Kleemannia (28 species) and Neocypholaelaps (22 species) are the largest genera in the family. Ameroseiella, Kleemannia, Kleemannia (Primoseius) and Sinoseius are considered to be valid taxa and, in presented systematic classification, they are removed from synonymy with Ameroseius. The genus Pseudoameroseius gen. n., with type species Ameroseius michaelangeli Moraza, 2006 (from Canary Islands), is newly erected to further refine broad primary concept of Ameroseius as understood by some former authors (Karg, Bregetova). Asperolaelaps is removed from synonymy with Neocypholaelaps. Three new species are here described, namely Ameroseius renatae sp. n. (based on specimens from Slovakia), Kleemannia dolichochaeta sp. n. (from Spain) and Kleemannia miranda sp. n. (from U.S.A.).The following new junior synonymies are proposed: Ameroseius apodius Karg, 1971 = Ameroseiella macrochelae (Westerboer, 1963); Ameroseius bregetovae Livshits & Mitrofanov, 1975 = Neocypholaelaps favus Ishikawa, 1968; Ameroseius chinensis Khalili-Moghadam & Saboori, 2016 = Ameroseius guyimingi Ma, 1997; Ameroseius crassisetosus Ye & Ma, 1993, Ameroseius qinghaiensis Li & Yang, 2000 and Ameroseius norvegicus Narita, Abduch & Moraes, 2015 = Ameroseius corbiculus (Sowerby, 1806); Ameroseius dubitatus Berlese, 1918 = Kleemannia plumosa (Oudemans, 1902); Ameroseius eumorphus Bregetova, 1977 and Kleemannia potchefstroomensis Kruger & Loots, 1980 = Kleemannia pseudoplumosa (Rack, 1972); Ameroseius gilarovi Petrova, 1986 = Kleemannia plumigera Oudemans, 1930; Ameroseius imparsetosus Westerboer, 1963 = Ameroseius georgei (Turk, 1943); Ameroseius lanatus Solomon, 1969 and Ameroseius fimetorum Karg, 1971 = Kleemannia tenella (Berlese, 1916); Ameroseius lanceosetis Livshits & Mitrofanov, 1975 = Kleemannia pavida (C. L. Koch, 1839); Ameroseius marginalis Fan & Li, 1993 and Ameroseius sichuanensis Fan & Li, 1993 = Kleemannia insignis (Bernhard, 1963); Ameroseius pseudofurcatus Livshits & Mitrofanov, 1975 = Ameroseius furcatus Karg, 1971; Ameroseius stramenis Karg, 1976 and Lasioseius (Lasioseius) gracilis Halbert, 1923 = Kleemannia delicata (Berlese, 1918); Epicriopsis langei Livshits & Mitrofanov, 1975 and Epicriopsis baloghi Kandil, 1978 = Epicriopsis palustris Karg, 1971; Epicriopsis rivus Karg, 1971 = Epicriopsis mirabilis Willmann, 1956; Neocypholaelaps ewae Haitlinger, 1987 ...

Birds are attacked by a remarkable diversity of ectoparasites, mostly arthropods. After lice (Insecta: Phthiraptera), the richest group is mites (Arachnida: Acari). Several mite families, with about 2500 species (Proctor and Owens, 2000), live in close association with birds being less harmful, such as feather mites (Astigmata: Analgoidea, Pterolichoidea), or severe blood feeders (Dermanyssidae and Macronyssidae). The existence and feeding of parasitic mites may cause some pathological effects like irritation, anemia, allergy, transmission of pathogens, and death as well (Chirico et al., 2003). While surveying parasitic mites associated with Egyptian birds, we recognized the need for taxonomical and ecological information that could be useful for bird biologists, veterinarians, and ornithologists interested in studying bird-associated mites. Faunistic studies about mites of birds in Egypt are limited. First reports of mites from Egyptian birds were published by Wafa and Soliman (1968) for Prostigmata (Cheyletidae), by Rakha (1980) for Astigmata, and by Zaher (1986) for mites of various orders.
