Abstract

Two new species of Pyemotes are described: Pyemotes zhonghuajia sp. nov. parasitic on a variety of Coleoptera, Lepidoptera and Hymenoptera in China and Pyemotes turkeyensis sp. nov. parasitic on moths in Turkey. Pyemotes tritici (LaGreze-Fossat & Montagne, 1851) in its revised concept is redescribed based on specimens from USA and Mexico. Keys to separate both adult males and females of these species are provided. Grandjean’s notation for idiosomal and leg chaetotaxy is applied to the Pyemotidae.
