Proprioseiopsis badryi. — Moraes et al., 2004: 172; Chant & McMurtry, 2005 a: 13; 2007: 89. Female (holotype and two additional females). Dorsal shield mostly smooth, with reticulation anterolaterally to z 2 and in the central area of the opisthonotal region of the dorsal shield (Fig. 8); 406, 385 [365] long and 257, 255 [237] wide, with 16 pairs of setae, five pairs of pores and eleven pairs of lyrifissures. Setae j 1 26, 21 [24], j 3 55 [54], j 4 5 [5], j 5 5 [5], j 6 10 [13], J 5 10 [10], z 2 63 [38], z 4 91, 81 [78], z 5 5, 4 [6], Z 1 23, 18 [20], Z 4 94 [86], Z 5 88, 86 [72], s 4 94, 86 [87], S 2 60, 52 [59], S 4 52, 49 [50], S 5 23 [19], r 3 31, 29 [29], R 1 21 [25]. Setae j 1, j 4, j 5, z 5, j 6, J 5, Z 1 and S 5 smooth, other setae serrate. Peritreme extending forward to level of j 1. Venter (Fig. 9). Sternal shield mostly smooth, with few lateral striae, with three pairs of setae and two pairs of lyrifissures; region anterior to st 1 lightly striate. Distances between st 1 –st 1 52 [56], st 2 –st 2 73 [71], st 3 –st 3 86 [83], st 4 –st 4 96, 94 [94]. Genital shield mostly smooth, with few lateral striae, with lateral extensions; distance between st 5 –st 5 86 [88]. Ventrianal shield subpentagonal, with transverse striae in the anterior two thirds; 140, 135 [132] long, 138 [133] wide at level of ZV 2 and 144 [144] wide at level of anus; with three pairs of pre-anal setae and a pair of pre-anal pores. Seta JV 5 75, 70 [73]. Ventral setae smooth, except JV 5, serrate. Two pairs of metapodal plates. Spermatheca (Fig. 11). Calyx of spermatheca short, funnel-shaped, 10 [12] long; atrium distinct. Gnathosoma. Corniculi parallel to each other; basal width of corniculus 3, distance between bases of corniculi 9. Movable cheliceral digit 31, 29 [29], with one tooth; fixed digit 30, 29 [28] long, with three teeth; dorsal and lateral lyrifissures distinct (Fig. 10). Legs. Macrosetae sharp-tipped: Sge IV 49, 47 [39], Sti IV 44, 39 [29], St IV 91, 83 [74] (Fig. 12); chaetotaxy of genu II 2, 2/ 1, 2 / 0, 1; genu III 1, 2/ 1, 2 / 0, 1. Male (one paratype). Dorsal shield pattern as in female; 326 long and 214 wide. Setae j 1 22, j 3 49, j 4 5, j 5 6, j 6 8, J 5 8, z 2 32, z 4 66, z 5 6, Z 1 16, Z 4 77, Z 5 67, s 4 75, S 2 46, S 4 33, S 5 17, r 3 19, R 1 18. Setae j 1, j 4, j 5, z 5, j 6, J 5, Z 1 and S 5 smooth, other setae serrate. Peritreme extending forward to level of j 3. Venter. Distances between st 1 –st 1 65, st 2 –st 2 68, st 3 –st 3 75, st 4 –st 4 70, st 5 –st 5 53. Ventrianal shield subtriangular, strongly reticulate; 144 long and 175 wide at anterior corners (Fig. 14); with three pairs of pre-anal setae and a pair of pre-anal pores. Seta JV 5 47. Gnathosoma. Movable cheliceral digit 25 long, with one tooth; fixed digit 27 long, with two teeth; lateral lyrifissure distinct. Shaft of spermatodactyl 18 long, foot 21 (Fig. 13). Legs. Macrosetae sharp-tipped: Sge IV 34, Sti IV 25, St IV 67; chaetotaxy of genua II and III as in female. Specimens examined. Holotype female from soil under mango trees, at Sharkia governorate, July 1977 (coll. M.A. El-Borolossy); one paratype male and two femles from same substrate, at Giza governorate, June 1978 (coll. M.A. El-Borolossy). Previous records from Egypt. Behira, Dakahlia, Giza and Sharkia governorates (Zaher, 1986); unspecified governorate (Nasr & Abou-Awad, 1985). Remarks. According to Nasr & Abou-Awad (1985), A. badryi was first described in an unpublished MSc thesis (El-Borolossy, 1979). Nasr & Abou-Awad (1985) mentioned the name of this species (indicating El- Borolossy [sic] as the author) in a key to the Egyptian Amblyseius. That constitutes the original description of the species, despite the fact that no information was then provided about the type specimens. Zaher (1986) provided a detailed redescription of the species, with illustrations and setal measurements, mistakenly mentioning Yousef & El-Brollosy [sic] as the authors. Our measurements of the holotype are close to those reported by Zaher (1986) for a single female, except S 5 and j 6 (respectively 30 and 12 according to that author). This difference could be due to the smaller size of the specimen examined (the holotype). Differently from most other Proprioseiopsis species (Chant & McMurtry, 2005 a), P. badryi does not have macrosetae on legs I–III.
