Description
Summary:The tribe Typhlodromipsini n. tribe is diagnosed and 5 new genera are proposed: Diaphoroseius n. gen., Aristadromips n. gen., Phytodromips n. gen., Metadromips n. gen., and Afrodromips n. gen. Three established genera are included in this tribe: Typhlodromips De Leon, Scapulaseius Karg and Oomen-Kalsbeek, new status, and Knopkirie Beard. Keys to these genera are provided and exemplar species are figured. We propose a cladogram suggesting the relationships between the constituent genera. We also amend the generic name Ueckermannia (to Ueckermannseius) that we proposed in an earlier paper (2005).
