A species of mites of the genus Eutarsopolipus Berlese, 1911 (Acari: Prostigmata: Podapolipidae), Eutarsopolipus elongatus Regenfuss, 1968, belonging to the acanthomus species group, is found from northwestern Iran. This is first record of the species from Asia including Iran. Also, unknown male of this species is discovered. During a survey on mites associated with insects in northwestern Iran, three colonies of this ectoparasitic species were recovered from subelytral cavity of the carabid beetles (Amara aenea). Purposes of this article are to describe the male and to redescribe the larval and adult females of this species, with world key to male stage of the acanthomus species group of the genus Eutarsopolipus.
1911年发现的真塔尔索波利螨属(Eutarsopolipus Berlese)的一种螨类(蜱螨亚纲:前气门目:足螨科),1968年的长真塔尔索波利螨(Eutarsopolipus elongatus Regenfuss),属于棘胸螨物种组,发现于伊朗西北部。这是该物种在包括伊朗在内的亚洲的首次记录。此外,还发现了该物种未知的雄性个体。在对伊朗西北部与昆虫相关的螨类进行调查期间,从步甲科甲虫(铜绿阿玛拉步甲,Amara aenea)的鞘翅下腔中采集到了三个这种外寄生性物种的群体。本文的目的是描述该物种的雄性个体,并重新描述其幼虫和成年雌性个体,同时给出真塔尔索波利螨属棘胸螨物种组雄性阶段的世界检索表。
