Acari Trombidiformes Raphignathoidea addendum

Abstract

An update on “Annotated catalogue of Stigmaeidae (Acari: Prostigmata), with a pictorial key to genera” published in October 2016 is presented. The type species of the genus Ledermuelleriopsis Willmann, 1951 is changed from Ledermuelleriopsis triscutata to Ledermuelleriopsis plumosa Willmann, 1951. Newly published species and new information on old species are provided. Some other informamtion including an erratum is also added.
