During a field survey in 2016–2107, three new species of eriophyid mites (Trombidiformes: Eriophyoidea: Eriophyidae) were collected from Leguminosae plants, from semi-arid and arid environment in Birjand region, South Khorasan province, East of Iran. They are Aculus onobrychiensissp. nov. from Onobrychis laxiflora Baker, Anthocoptes dorokhshiisp. nov. from Trifolium repens L., and Aculops pachyphorasp. nov. from Sophora pachycarpa C.A. Mey. All three new species appear to be vagrants on the leaves and no symptom was observed. The new species are illustrated and described herein. http://www.zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:C324AC50-1A8D-408A-B4A5-3394EEB4F202.

Abstract
During a field survey in 2016–2107, three new species of eriophyid mites (Trombidiformes: Eriophyoidea: Eriophyidae) were collected from Leguminosae plants, from semi-arid and arid environment in Birjand region, South Khorasan province, East of Iran. They are Aculus onobrychiensissp. nov. from Onobrychis laxiflora Baker, Anthocoptes dorokhshiisp. nov. from Trifolium repens L., and Aculops pachyphorasp. nov. from Sophora pachycarpa C.A. Mey. All three new species appear to be vagrants on the leaves and no symptom was observed. The new species are illustrated and described herein. http://www.zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:C324AC50-1A8D-408A-B4A5-3394EEB4F202.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
