| abstract | In the light of further study and much more additional material Crotiscus Ewing is removed from synonymy with Trombicula Berlese and reinstated as a valid genus. Crotiscella Wharton and Fuller is sunk as a synonym of Crotiscus.
Six species, for which a key is given, are now referred to Crotiscus.
C. desdentatus (Boshell and Kerr) and C. thomasi (Oudemans) are redescribed and lectotype designated.
Four new species, C. aetherios, C. dispar, C. frigipes, and C. hayesi are described from rodents of the Peruvian highlans. |
