The new genus and two new species are in the family Eriophyidae: Euterpia fissa n. gen. & n. sp. from Euterpe precatoria and Notostrix spinula n. sp. from Mauritia flexuosa. Three new species belong to the family Phytoptidae: Palmiphytoptus barbosae n. sp. from Astrocaryum acaule; Propilus alternatus n. sp. from Mauritia flexuosa and Propilus tavaresi n. sp. from Elaeis oleifera. Key words: Acari, Prostigmata, Arecaceae, plant feeding mites, South America, taxonomy Introduction There is a large diversity of palm trees (Arecaceae) in tropical regions and several of them are of socio-economical importance. The production area of palm trees is increasing substantially in Brazil. Eriophyoid mites are strictly phytophagous and many species reach pest status in agricultural crops around the world (Lindquist et al. 1996). Knowledge on the eriophyoid mite fauna associated with palms can be useful in their future recognition in commercial palm crops and, in this way, facilitate understanding possible alterations in agroecosystems which could favour a mite species in such a way that it became a pest. The 1. This paper was started during development of a thesis submitted by the senior author to the University of São Paulo, Piracicaba, Brazil, advised by Prof. Gilberto J. de Moraes, in partial fullfillment of the requirement for the Ph.D degree.

2 coconut mite, Aceria guerreronis Keifer (Prostigmata: Eriophyidae), represents a major pest of this crop in several production areas. The main host plant of A. guerreronis in most of its occurrence area, from the economic point of view, is coconut, Cocos nucifera L.. However, there are indications that it is not its original host (Moore & Howard 1996). It is possible that A. guerreronis has adopted coconut as a host plant since expansion of coconut distribution area in America and Africa and has as original host plant an unknown palm tree. Surveys of eriophyoid mites on palm trees can provide new information on the host range of A. guerreronis. Eriophyoid mites associated with native and exotic palm trees in Brazil have been surveyed in Southeast, Northeast and Central Brazil (Robbs & Perachi 1965; Flechtmann 1989, 1994, 1998; Santana et al. 1994; Flechtmann & Santana 1997; Santana & Flechtmann 1998; Gondim et al. 2000; Navia & Flechtmann 2002, 2003). In this paper a new genus and five new species of eriophyoid mites collected from native palm trees from Amazon forest in North region of Brazil are described. Measurements are given in micrometers. For females, each measurement of the holotype precedes the corresponding range for the paratypes. Some measurements of paratypes could not be taken because of the orientation it was mounted. In the description of the eriophyid mite ventral opisthosomal annuli count starts from genitalia rear margin and dorsal opisthosomal annuli count from mid prodorsal rear margin. Euterpia n. gen. (Fig. 1) (Eriophyidae, Phyllocoptinae, Phyllocoptini) Diagnosis. Body fusiform, shield sculptured, with frontal lobe and with scapular setae well ahead of rear shield margin; gnathosoma small. Opisthosoma with a dorsal central ridge. Dorsal palp genual seta (antapical seta) bifurcate. Tibial I (l ) and genual I and II (l ) setae present, empodium entire; femoral seta missing. Opisthosomal setae I (d) and II (e) missing. Type species: Euterpia fissa n. sp. Etymology. The generic name, Euterpia, is derived from the genus of the host plant, Euterpe, plus the suffix ia, Latin, pertaining to. Gender: feminine. Remarks. Euterpia n.g. is near Neodicrothrix Mohanasundaram 1984 in presenting bifurcate antapical seta and in the lack of ventral opisthosomal setae I (d) and II (e). It differs in the presence of tibial (l ) and genual (l ) setae, both missing in Neodicrothrix and in the absence of femoral setae (bv), which are present in Neodicrothrix Magnolia Press NAVIA & FLECHTMANN

Relation to host. Vagrants on inner surface of leaves causing no apparent damage. Etymology. The specific designation spinula, from the Latin, feminine, diminutive spina, thorn, refers to the short, spinelike scapular seta. Remarks. Notostrix spinula n. sp. is similar to N. jamaicae Keifer 1970 in the general aspect of the prodorsal shield including scapular seta but differs in the number of opisthosomal dorsal annuli (26 in the N. spinula n. sp., 36 in N. jamaicae) and in the genitalia (as wide as long in N. spinula n. sp., wider than long in N. jamaicae). It shares the general aspect of the epigynum with N. vasquezae Navia & Flechtmann 2003, but differs in the frontal lobe of the prodorsal shield (acuminate in N. spinula n. sp., rounded in N. vasquezae), in the scapular seta (very short, spinelike in N. spinula n. sp.; long, setiform in N. vasquezae) and in the number of dorso-opisthosomal annuli (26 in N. spinula n. sp., 48 in N. vasquezae).

11 Relation to host. Mites are vagrants on inner surface of leaves causing no apparent damage. Colonies were observed protected under a dense layer of loose trichomes along the midrib. Etymology. This species is named after Ranyse Querino Barbosa, Entomologist at Unimontes, Montes Claros, Minas Gerais, Brazil, in appreciation of her inestimable help in collecting this material. Remarks. Palmiphytoptus barbosae n. sp. is the second species described in this genus. It differs from the type species, P. oculatus Navia & Flechtmann 2002, in the fusiform body shape (elongate, vermiform in the type species), in presenting median and admedian lines on the prodorsal shield (central shield area not ornamented in P. oculatus); in the absence of eye-like structures (present in P. oculatus) and in smooth dorsoopisthosomal annuli (microtuberculated in P. oculatus). Inadvertently Amrine et al. (2003, p.18) included the eye like structures, a specific character of the type species, as a generic character for Palmiphytoptus, in the key to genera.

Relation to host. Mites are vagrants on inner surface of leaves causing no apparent damage. Colonies were observed protected under a dense layer of loose of trichomes along midrib. Etymology. We take pleasure in naming this species after Adauto Maurício Tavares, Entomologist at Embrapa Amazônia Ocidental, Manaus, Amazonas, Brazil, for his most valuable support in collecting this material.
