Abstract

A new false spider mite (Acari: Trombidiformes: Tenuipalpidae) species, Phytoptipalpus jubailensis n. sp., Khan, Kamran and Alatawi, is described and illustrated based on adult female, collected from Capparis decidua (Forssk.) Edgew. (Capparaceae). The genus Obuloides Baker and Tuttle is recorded for the first time from Saudi Arabia, with the record of O. inquilinus Ueckermann, Theron and Tiedt, from Haloxylon salicornicum (Moq.) Bunge ex Boiss (Amaranthaceae). In addition, two new records of species in the genus Aegyptobia Sayed, A. hamus Chaudhri and A. abuzabiensis Meyer and Van Dis, are presented from Kaviria lachnantha (Botsch.) Akhani (Amaranthaceae), and H. salicornicum (Moq.) Bunge ex Boiss. (Amaranthaceae), respectively.
