Description
Baloghoizetes gen. n.
Diagnosis. Family Microzetidae GRANDJEAN, 1936. Rostrum wide, straight, with protruding rostral apex and two strong corniculate outgrowths laterally. Lamellae large, covering the prodorsum, but rostral apex visible in dorsal view. Lamellar setae arising on the bottom surface. Tutorium large, triangular. Sensillus setiform, long, directed backwards. Pteromorpha small, triangulate. Nine pairs of short, fine notogastral setae present. Epimeral region with neotrichy. Setae of anogenital region typical for the family. All legs monodactylous.
Type species: Baloghoizetes pluritrichosus sp. n.
Remarks. On the basis of the form of lamellae, rostrum and sensilli, the new genus seems to be related to the genus Hymenozetes BALOGH, 1962. However, the position and length of the lamlellarand interlamellarsetae and the neotrichy in the epimeral region (an unique feature in this family) distinguish it from all heretofore known genera in the family.
Etymology. The new genus is named in honourof Prof. J. B ALOGH, my teacher, the renown Hungarian zoologist and acarologist.
