ABSTRACT A new species of quill mite of the family Syringophilidae (Acariformes: Prostigmata), Peristerophila nestoriae sp. nov. from New Zealand Kaka, Nestor meridionalis (Gmelin) (Psittaciformes: Strigopidae) is described. This new species is morphologically similar to Peristerophila falcophila [Skoracki M, Hromada M, Kaszewska K, Unsoeld M. 2018. Peristerophila falcophila sp. nov., a new species and first record of quill mites (Acariformes: Syringophilidae) parasitizing birds of the order Falconiformes. Acta Parasitologica. 63:744–749. https://doi.org/10.1515/ap-2018-0088], and differs from it as follow: the stylophore is 130–140 long (vs. 150–160 long); the propodonotal shield bear bases of setae ve, si, and c1 (vs. only ve and si on the propodonotal shield); fan-like setae p′ and p″ of legs III and IV with 11–13 tines (vs. 10 tines); the lengths of setae ag2 40–50 (vs. 55–70). Our finding is the first record of the presence of syringophilid mite on host of the family Strigopidae and first report of the member of Peristerophila on psittaciform birds. So far, the syringophilids mites have not been found in New Zealand. LSID: urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:FB0C5B37-DF42-428C-8C81-8FA56EA67504

Peristerophila nestoriae，一种寄生于新西兰 Kaka Nestor meridionalis (Gmelin) (Psittaciformes: Strigopidae) 的 Syringophilidae (Acariformes: Prostigmata) 羽毛螨的新种

摘要 针螨科 (Acariformes: Prostigmata) 的一种新种羽毛螨，Peristerophila nestoriae sp。十一月 描述了来自新西兰 Kaka 的 Nestor meridionalis (Gmelin) (Psittaciformes: Strigopidae)。这个新物种在形态上类似于 Peristerophila falcophila [Skoracki M, Hromada M, Kaszewska K, Unsoeld M. 2018. Peristerophila falcophila sp. 11 月，新物种和首次记录刺螨（Acariformes：Syringophilidae）寄生于隼形目鸟类。寄生虫学学报。63:744–749。https://doi.org/10.1515/ap-2018-0088]，与它的区别如下：触笔长度为 130-140（与 150-160 长）；前牙盾带有刚毛 ve、si 和 c1 的基部（而前牙盾上只有 ve 和 si）；III 和 IV 腿的扇形刚毛 p′ 和 p″，有 11-13 个尖齿（与 10 个尖齿相比）；刚毛 ag2 的长度为 40-50（与 55-70）。我们的发现是第一次在 Strigopidae 家族的宿主上存在嗜球螨螨的记录，以及第一次报告鹦鹉形目鸟类上的 Peristerophila 成员。到目前为止，新西兰还没有发现嗜血螨。LSID: urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:FB0C5B37-DF42-428C-8C81-8FA56EA67504
