| Abstract |
| Parasitengona mites belong to Trombidiformes order and Prostigmata suborder and include one of the largest groups of Acari. There are seven superfamilies of terrestrial parasitengone mites: Allotanaupodoidea Zhang & Fan, 2007 contains family Allotanaupodidae Zhang & Fan, 2007; Amphotrombidoidea Zhang, 1998 with family Amphotrombiidae Zhang, 1998; Calyptostomatoidea Oudemans, 1923 with family Calyptostomatidae Oudemans, 1923; Erythraeoidea Robineau-Desvoidy, 1828 contains two families Erythraeidae Robineau Desvoidy, 1828 and Smarididae Vitzthum, 1929; Tanaupodoidea Thor, 1935 with family Tanaupodidae Thor, 1935; Trombidioidea Leach, 1815 with three epifamilies Trombelloidae Thor, 1935 with familes Audyanidae Southcott, 1987, Chyzeriidae Womersley, 1954, Johnstonianidae Thor, 1935, Neotrombidiidae Feider, 1955 and Trombellidae Thor, 1935; Trombiculoidae Ewing, 1929 (= Trombiculoidea sensu Wen 1999) with family Trombiculidae Ewing, 1929 and Trombidioidae Leach, 1815 with families Achaemenothrombiidae Saboori, Wohltmann & Hakimitabar, 2010, Microtrombidiidae Thor, 1935, Neothrombiidae Feider, 1959, Podothrombiidae Thor, 1935 and Trombidiidae Leach, 1815 and Yurebilloidea Southcott, 1996 with family Yurebillidae Southcott, 1996. One of them, Erythraeoidea Robineau-Desvoidy, 1828 includes two families, Erythraeidae Robineau-Desvoidy, 1828 and Smarididae Vitzthum, 1929. There are six species in family Smarididae, Smaris Latreille, 1796; Fessonia Heyden, 1826; Southcottiana Costa, Welbourn, klimov and Pepato, 2021; Trichosmaris Southcott, 1963; Sphaerotarsus Womersley, 1936 and Hirstiosoma Womersley, 1934. The genus Hirstiosoma includes 11 species which distributed in European countries (Montenegro, Italy, Poland, Spain, France, Austria, Finland and Hungary), Mexico, Papua New Guinea, Malaysia, Australia, Tasmania, New Zealand and Iran (H. quercus). H. latreillei was described based on postlarval and larval stages by Grandjean, 1947. On 11 July 2020, three specimens of larvae of H. latreillei were collected from Atini Village, Sari city, Mazandaran province. Mites were extracted using a Berlese-Tullgren funnel and were preserved in 75% alcohol, cleared in Nesbitt’s fluid, and mounted on microscopic slides using Faure’s medium. The larval stage of species of H. latreillei which has the following characters: Four solenidia (σ) and two trichobothria on Genu I, Ti III > 380 m. This species can be found in other countries, as it has already been collected from European countries and now from Iran. |
