Gaeolaelaps
Description
Notes on Gaeolaelaps with short peritremes
Karg (1979, 1982, 2006) has defined a G. similisetae species group including species that have short peritremes that extend to the middle or at most to anterior margin of coxa II. Nemati & Mohseni (2013) provided a key for 17 species of Gaeolaelaps with short peritremes. In most of these species the peritreme extends to the middle of coxa II, except for G. macra (Karg, 1978) and G. orbiculatus Nemati & Mohseni, 2013 in which the peritremes extend to the anterior level of coxa II. In the present paper we provide a key to 26 species that are considered as Gaeolaelaps which have a peritreme that extends to the anterior level of coxa II. In this group there are some species with very short peritreme extending only to the anterior level of coxa III (Mašán, 1998; Sklyar, 2012; Trach, 2012, 2016).
