カブリダニ亜科の識別
In this section, we show a simple way to discriminate 17 species of subfamily Amblyseiinae, 1 species of Phytoseiinae, 1 species of Typhlodrominae. Drawing pictures extracting outlines of dorsal shield and setae are used for comparison.
① : j3, ② : z2, ③ : z3, ④ : z4, ⑤ : s4, ⑥ : s6
1. Choose the drawing picture at left if dorsal setae j3, z2, z3, z4, s4, s6 are observed along the edge of the dorsal shield, and dorsal setae are relatively thin. The specimen maybe Typhlodromus vulgaris belonging to the subfamily Typhlodrominae.
2. Choose the drawing picture at the center if dorsal setae j3, z2, z3, z4, s4, s6 are observed along the edge of the dorsal shield, and dorsal setae are relatively thick. The specimen maybe Phytoseius nipponicus of the subfamily Phytoseiinae.
3. Choose the drawing picture at right if dorsal setae j3, z2, z4, s4 are observed along the edge of the dorsal shield. The specimen maybe 17 species of the subfamily Amblyseiinae.
