Quill mites of the family Syringophilidae are widely distributed parasites of birds inhabiting the interior of feather quills. In this paper, we provide detailed information on the host spectrum and distribution for six previously described species of syringophilines associated with starlings with new host and locality records. Additionally, we describe three new species: Marcisova, Skoracki, and Patan sp. n. from the Common Hill Myna Linnaeus in Indonesia (Java) and the White-necked Myna (Vieillot) in Indonesia (Celebes); Skoracki and Patan sp. n. from the Golden Myna (Lesson) in Papua New Guinea; and Skoracki and Patan sp. n. from the Abbott's Starling (Richmond) in Tanzania. Finally, we explore the host-parasite interactions within the system comprising starlings and syringophiline mites.
羽管螨科的羽管螨是广泛分布于栖息在羽毛羽管内部的鸟类身上的寄生虫。在本文中,我们提供了六种先前描述的与椋鸟相关的羽管螨类物种的宿主谱和分布的详细信息,包括新的宿主和产地记录。此外,我们描述了三个新物种:来自印度尼西亚(爪哇)的家八哥和印度尼西亚(苏拉威西岛)的白领八哥身上的Marcisova, Skoracki, and Patan新种;来自巴布亚新几内亚的金冠树八哥身上的Skoracki and Patan新种;以及来自坦桑尼亚的阿博特氏椋鸟身上的Skoracki and Patan新种。最后,我们探讨了由椋鸟和羽管螨类组成的系统内的宿主 - 寄生虫相互作用。
