FIGURE 1: Length of the idiosoma in Proctophyllodes spp. in A. female tritonymphs, B. adult females and C. adult males. Measurements (dashed line) were taken from the margin of the prodorsum to the posterior margin of the body. In female tritonymphs we measured the lateral length (A), medial length (B), and width (C) of the docking papillae. In adult males (D; ventral), we measured the distal (D) and basal (E) widths of the adanal suckers as well as sucker depth (F). Line drawings are modeled after Proctophyllodes glandarinus for adults and from Proctophyllodes pari for tritonymphs (Atyeo and Braasch, 1996). Diagrams of the docking papillae and adanal suckers are drawn after scanning electron images published in Witali´nski et al. (1992).
