Abstract
Two new species, Dichopelmus lotus n. sp. (Eriophyidae) and Trimeroptes kakius n. sp. (Diptilomiopidae) infesting persimmon, Diospyros kaki Linn. (Ebenaceae), are described and illustrated. We provide keys to the eriophyoid mites associated with Diospyros spp. in China, and to all species of Dichopelmus and Trimeroptes.References
