A list of 37 species of ptyctimous mites from the State of Victoria, Australia, is provided. Seven species new for science are described and further seven are recorded for the first time in Victoria. The genus Arphthicarus has been discovered in Victoria and is represented by two new species. Zoogeographical distribution of each species is provided. Analysis of the ptyctimous fauna from four Victorian areas (Otway Ranges, Yarra Ranges, Errinundra Plateau and Strzelecki Ranges) has revealed that four species occur in a large number of specimens in one of the areas. Similarity analyses indicate that the faunas of Errinundra Plateau and Yarra Ranges are the most similar. An overview of state of knowledge on the ptyctimous mites from State of Victoria, Australia and Australasian Region is presented.
本文列出了来自澳大利亚维多利亚州的37种缝颚螨。文中描述了7个新的科学物种,并首次在维多利亚州记录了另外7个物种。在维多利亚州发现了Arphthicarus属,并由两个新物种代表。提供了每个物种的动物地理分布。对维多利亚州四个地区(奥特韦山脉、亚拉山脉、埃里嫩德拉高原和斯特雷泽基山脉)的缝颚螨动物群分析表明,有4个物种在其中一个地区的大量标本中出现。相似性分析表明,埃里嫩德拉高原和亚拉山脉的动物群最为相似。本文概述了澳大利亚维多利亚州和澳大拉西亚地区缝颚螨的知识现状。
