Abstract

Deutonymphs and adults of Oregonacarus rivulicolus gen.nov., sp.nov. are described, and distributional data are given for this and other species of Anisitsiellinae inhabiting seepage water habitats in western North America. A revised key to the nearctic genera of Anisitsiellinae and a brief discussion of their phylogenetic relationships are presented.

Résumé

L’ouvrage décrit des deutonymphes et des adultes de Oregonacarus rivulicolus, nouveau genre et nouvelle espèce, et présente de données de distribution relatives à cette espèce et à d’autres espèces d’Anisitsiellinées inféodées à des habitats d’eaux de remontée dans l’ouest de l’Amérique du Nord. Il présente une clef d’identification révisée des genres néarctiques d’Anisitsiellinées et une brève discussion de leurs rapports phylogénétiques.
