Abstract

Four new species of eriophyoid mites are described and illustrated from China. Three of these species are in the subfamily Rhyncaphytoptinae: Hyborhinus linderae sp. nov. infesting Lindera obtusiloba Blume (Lauraceae); Neocatarhinus dendrocalamus sp. nov. infesting Dendrocalamus latiflorus Munro (Poaceae) and Rhinophytoptus tremae sp. nov. infesting Trema cannabina Lour. (Ulmaceae); and one in the subfamily Diptilomiopinae: Vimola emarginata sp. nov. infesting Terminalia sp. (Combretaceae).
