| abstract | Two new species of Eutarsopolipus (Acariformes: Tarsonemoidea: Podapolipidae) are described from Australian species of Clivina (Coleoptera: Carabidae): Eutarsopolipus divisus sp. nov. from Clivina procera Putzeys and Eutarsopolipus olszanowskii sp. nov. from Clivina quadratifrons Sloane. Both new species do not fit into any of the current species groups of Eutarsopolipus, although may be members of the ochoai group that have secondarily lost their claws. A further autapomorphy for the male (known for C. divisus only) is its unusual divided plate CD, which is unique in the Tarsonemoidea. |
