Setae j 3, Z 4, Z 5, s 4 and Jv 5 relatively thick and serrate, j 1 relatively thick and smooth; other idiosomal setae aciculate and smooth. Ventrianal shield with three pairs of setae and a pair of small rounded pores postero-median to Jv 2. Peritreme extending anteriorly to the level of j 1. Macrosetae distinct and present on genu, tibia and tarsus of the leg IV, thick and tapered distally. Calyx of spermatheca cup-shaped or, atrium small and major duct quite distinct next to atrium. Adult female (n = 5) (Figures 1–5). Measurements given in Table 1. Dorsum. (Figure 1) Dorsal shield almost completely smooth except for a few anterolateral striae; with 16 pairs of setae (j 1, j 3– j 6, J 2, J 5, z 2, z 4, z 5, Z 1, Z 4, Z 5, S 2, S 5), five pairs of pores (gd2, gd5, gd6, gd8 and gd9) and seven pairs of distinct lyrifissures (id1, id2, id4, idm1, idm2, idx, idl3, idm5, idm6); without incision next to s 4. Setae r 3 and R 1 in the unsclerotised cuticle. Setae j 3, Z 4, Z 5, s 4 and Jv 5 relatively thick and serrate; j 1 and r 3 relatively thick and smooth; other dorsal idiosomal setae aciculate and smooth. Venter. (Figure 2) Ventral shields smooth. Sternal shield with three pairs of setae and two pairs of lyrifissures; posterior margin slightly concave. Genital shield with the posterior margin truncate. Ventrianal shield elongate, with three pairs of pre-anal setae (Jv 1, Jv 2 and Zv 2) and a pair of pores mediad and slightly posteriad of Jv 2. Setae of the venter of the idiosoma aciculate and smooth except Jv 5 thick and serrated. Peritreme. Extending anteriorly to level of setae j 1. ...Continued on the next page 1) from the original description (El-Banhawy 1984), specimen from Sooretama, Espirito Santo, Brazil on unidentified plant; (2) Itabuna, Bahia, Brazil (14º46’09”S, 39º17’31”W), on Solanum stramonifolium, 4 October 2004; K.K.M.

Female holotype collected from Croton blanchetianus (Euphorbiaceae) on 1 August 2019, in Olho D´água das Flores, Alagoas, Brazil (9°32′9″S, 37°17′38″W). Paratypes, collected in the same place and on the same plant as holotype, on the following dates: two females, 30 January 2019, one female, 15 March 2019, four females, 18 June 2019, two females, 1 August 2019; one male, 30 January 2019 and one male, 1 August 2019. All this material is deposited at Departamento de Entomologia e Acarologia, Universidade de São Paulo, Escola Superior de Agricultura “Luiz de Queiroz” (ESALQ/USP), Piracicaba, São Paulo, Brazil. Two paratype females collected on 30 January 2019, three paratype females collected on 18 June 2019, one paratype female collected on 1 August 2019 and one paratype male collected on 1 August 2019, in same locality and on the same plant as holotype, are deposited at Laboratório de Acarologia, Universidade Federal Rural de Pernambuco (UFRPE), Recife, Pernambuco, Brazil.
