Abstract

Despite advances in the study of mites Eriophyoidea in Brazil, it is still limited. The objective was to increase knowledge about Eriophyoidea in the states of Pernambuco and Roraima, Brazil. We describe three new genera, 10 new species and redescription of Aculus pitangae Boczek & Davis, including a description of the male, and its classification was discussed. Two new genera and four new species belonging to the family Diptilomiopidae:Solivagus alpha Reis & Navia and Davisella spondias Reis & Navia in Spondias mombin L., a new genus of Rhyncaphytoptinae in Musa sp. and Catarhinus n. sp. in Heliconia bihai L. Two new genus and four new species of the family Eriophyidae: a new genus of Phyllocoptini in Heliconia stricta Huber, a new genus of Colopodacici in Bactris sp., Dichopelmus ibapitanga Reis & Navia in Eugenia uniflora L. and Nasuchus n. sp. in Socratea exorrhiza (Mart.) H. Wendl and Bactris gasipaes Kunth. Two new species of the family Phytoptidae: Propilus n. sp. in Bactris sp. and Retracrus n. sp. in B. gasipaes. The diagnosis, morphology, host plants, locations and type material of these genera and species were presented.
