- Abstract
A new quill mite Torotrogla emberizae sp. nov. (Acariformes: Syringophilidae) parasitizing the Chestnut-eared Bunting Emberiza fucata Pallas, 1776 (Passeriformes: Emberizidae) in Japan is described based on the external morphology and DNA barcode data (mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I sequences, COI). Females of T. emberizae sp. nov. differ from T. volgini Skoracki and Mironov, 2013 by having the short, wide and blunt-ended hypostomal protuberances (vs long, thin and sharp-ended), setae h1 ca. twice shorter than f1 (vs h1 longer than f1), the fan-like setae p' and p" of legs III-IV provided with ca. 10 tines (vs 7-8 tines) and lengths of setae vi 70-105 (vs 55-65), ve 105-135 (vs 85-90) and h1 55-60 (vs 95-120).
