Abstract
|
This paper describes two eriophyid species, poorly detailed in the past, which have been found for the first time in
Iran. Aceria varia (Nalepa) (Eriophyinae: Acerini) was collected on Populus alba L. (Salicaceae) and Tegoprionus
dentatus (Nalepa) (Phyllocoptinae: Anthocoptini) on Galium aparine L. (Rubiaceae) in Miandoab region of West
Azerbaijan province (Iran). More information about the type host plants, other hosts and habitus of five Aceria species
associated with P. alba and a gross comparison of some traits among Tegoprionus species known worldwide are
provided.
