Abstract

Ten new species of the feather mite subfamily Pterodectinae (Analgoidea: Proctophyllodidae) are described from New World passeriforms collected in Chile and Cuba: Amerodectes caribaeus sp. n. from Contopus caribaeus (Linnaeus) (Tyrannidae), A. contopus sp. n. from C. virens (Linnaeus) (Tyrannidae), A. plumbeus sp. n. from Turdus plumbeus Linnaues (Turdidae), A. phrygilus sp. n. from Phrygilus patagonicus Lowe (Emberizidae), A. sicalis sp. n. from Sicalis luteola (Sparman) (Emberizidae), A. wilsoniae sp. n. from Wilsonia citrina (Boddaert) (Parulidae), Metapterodectes leptasthenurae sp. n. from Leptasthenura aegithaloides (Kittlitz) (Furnariidae), Tyrannidectes anairetes sp. n. from Anairetes parulus (Kittlitz) (Tyrannidae), T. cinclodes sp. n. from Cinclodes patagonicus (Gmelin) (Furnariidae), T. falcklandicus sp. n. from Turdus falcklandii Quoy and Gaimard (Turdidae). Keys to all currently described species of the genera Amerodectes Valim and Hernandes, 2010, Metapterodectes Mironov, 2008, and Tyrannidectes Mironov, 2008 and improved diagnoses of these genera are proposed. Brief comments on the suprageneric systematics of the family Proctophyllodidae are given.
