            <p> Type species:  Zercon fimbriatus C. L. Koch, 1839 by original designation. </p>

            <p> Type species.  Prozercon lutulentus Halašková, 1963 , by original designation. </p>
            <p> Rafas Błaszak, 1979b: 14 ; Urhan &amp; Ayyildiz, 1996d: 582. syn. nov. </p>
            <p> Type species  Rafas bisternalis Błaszak, 1979 , by original designation. </p>
            <p>Diagnosis. Podonotal shield carapace-like, expanded anteroventrally and lateroventrally, setae j1 situated ventrally. Peritrematal shields separated from dorsal shields by a narrow slit of membranous cuticle, their posterolateral tips expanded posteriorly. Peritremes expanded to anterior half of coxae III, straight or slightly bent. Setae r1 and r3 shifted ventrally to peritrematal shields, both short, r3 always smooth and needle-like. Setae z1 absent. Glands gv2 absent. Ventrianal shield bearing 19 setae, setae ZV1 absent. Glands gv3 situated laterally or anterolaterally to adanal setae. Margin of opisthonotum with six or seven pairs of R-setae.</p>
            <p> Notes on the genus. Great variety can be observed in the shape of the peritrematal shields and the position of ventral shields in recent  Prozercon species. A group of species has freely-ending peritrematal shields in both female and male, and the size of the posterolateral expansion of shields is characteristic for species. However there is precedent for individual variability, even within a population (see  P. graecus sp. nov. below). In another group, the peritrematal shields of the female end freely, while they are fused with the ventrianal and dorsal shields in the males (e.g.  P. morazae sp. nov. ), and in a few species all three shields are fused together in both sexes. </p>
            <p> The subgenus  Prozercon (Plumatozercon) was established by Balan (1992), including two species,  P. lutulentus Halašková, 1963 and  P. halaskovae Petrova, 1977b , but Balan failed to designate a type species and the name is therefore not available. The name  Plumatozercon was first made available in Urhan &amp; Ayyildiz (1996c), who gave a short diagnosis accompanied by designation of  P. lutulentus as type species of the subgenus. Peritrematal seta r1 is always short in  Prozercon , but may be either pilose or smooth. This is the only character for distinguishing the subgenera  Prozercon and  Plumatozercon . The distinguishing character of the subgenera  Prozercon and  Plumatozercon is clearly unstable (as e.g. shape of r1 varies even within a population of  P. graceus sp. nov. from needlelike to pilose), and therefore it does not reflect phylogenetic divergence. Accordingly, I propose that  Plumatozercon is a junior synonym of the subgenus  Prozercon . </p>
            <p> The sternal shield of the female and the sternigenital shield of the male are weakly sclerotised in many  Prozercon species, which is often expressed in the presence of a weakly sclerotised band between sternal setae st1 and st2 (Figs 1–4) (e.g. Cälugär, 2004). Rarely it appears that setae st1 are inserted on small, isolated platelets (Moraza, 1988). A similar phenomenon was described by Błaszak (1979b) as the sternal shield of the female and sternigenital shield of the male completely divided behind setae st1, and this served as a major distinguishing feature of the genera  Rafas and  Prozercon . After reviewing the type specimens of  Prozercon bisternalis (Błaszak, 1979b) (deposited in Collection of Soil Zoology, Hungarian Natural History Museum), I have found that  P. bisternalis and many  Prozercon species (e.g. some specimens of  P. graecus sp. nov. ) are identical, and there is no evidence that the anterior sternal region of  Rafas develops separately as a jugular shield. Moreover, in the holotype and some paratypes of  P. bisternalis , the sternal shield seems to be undivided (Fig. 4), therefore it is a character of individual variability as well. Accordingly, this character should not be used in generic delimitation. Another distinctive feature of  Rafas was that there are only seven pairs of marginal setae on the opisthonotum, while the  Prozercon species bear eight pairs of setae in the same position (Błaszak, 1979b). However this is not true inasmuch as numerous species of  Prozercon characteristically possess seven pairs of marginal setae (variation in number of opisthomarginal setae is discussed below). I therefore propose that  Rafas is a junior synonym of  Prozercon , which results in two new combinations as  Prozercon bisternalis (Błaszak, 1979b) comb. nov. and  Prozercon blaszaki (Urhan &amp; Ayyildiz, 1996d) comb. nov. </p>
            <p> Absence of gland openings gv2 seems to be a stable apomorphy (however it is shared with many other genera) as it lacks in every  Prozercon species I have ever observed. It serves as a basis for distinguishing the genera  Aleksozercon Petrova, 1978 (where a single opening of gv2 present) and  Prozercon , while these genera share all other important characters. The single species  Aleksozercon zachvatkini Petrova, 1978 is quite similar in general appearance to  Prozercon species. It is important to mention that the major distinctive feature in Petrova’s original description was the partial (apparent?) fusion of the opisthonotal and podonotal shields in  Aleksozercon . The same phenomenon can be observed in  P. semiseparatus Ujvári, 2009 , but the latter lacks gv2. Apparent fusion of the dorsal shields seems to be a rare apomorphy, which may have evolved independently in both groups as a homoplasy, but further observation of  Aleksozercon specimens would be necessary for a firm decision. There is a species,  Mesozercon changbaiensis (Bei et al., 2002) comb. nov. , which was previously described as  Prozercon , which possess conspicuous pores gv2 and ventrianal setae ZV 1. I propose that this species should be transferred to the genus  Mesozercon Błaszak, 1976 , inasmuch as the posterodorsal muscle scars are unsclerotised and not conspicuous, therefore “dorsal cavities” characteristic for most of the  Zerconidae genera are lacking, which is a relatively rare apomorphy in the family. Furthermore, other major characters of this species agree with  Mesozercon , except the shape of setae r1, which is plumose in  M. changbaiensis and smooth in other  Mesozercon species. </p>
            <p> The number of opisthomarginal setae often varies individually, even within a specimen, and asymmetry of this character is quite common in zerconid mites. In  Prozercon , this number varies between five and nine, but specimens with five, six and nine pairs of marginal setae can be considered as aberrant. Observing several specimens of each species it is clear that basically two groups exist, the first one generally bears seven pairs of marginal setae (six R-setae), the second one generally bears eight pairs (seven R-setae). From a zoogeographic point of view it is important to note that most of the species bearing generally seven pairs of opisthomarginal setae are distributed only in the Mediterranean area, with the exception of  P. sellnicki Halašková, 1963 , which occurs in an area extending to Central Europe as well.  Prozercon species with eight pairs of opisthomarginal setae are distributed from the boreal to the Mediterranean zone of Europe and West-Asia. </p>

Postanal seta twice as long as preanal and adanal setae, smooth, setae JV5 elongate, densely pilose. Anal valves with vestigial euanal setae. Glands gv3 situated laterally to adanal setae. Anterior surface of ventrianal shield covered by squamous pattern to level of JV3-ZV3-ZV4. </p>
            <p>Male (Figs 10–11). Length of idiosoma: 266–274μm (270 μm); width: 220–224 μm (222 µm) (n = 2). Chaetotaxy, poroidotaxy and sculptural pattern of dorsal, ventrianal and peritrematal shields similar to those of female. Setae J1 and Z1 smooth. Length of opisthonotal setae and distances between their insertions as in Table 2. Dorsal cavities weakly sclerotised. Sternigenital shield well-sclerotised, bearing four pairs of setae. Shape of peritrematal shield similar to that of female, its posterolateral tips reaching level of R7.</p>
            <p>Etymology. The species is named after one of the major tribes of ancient Greece, the Achaeans.</p>
            <p> Remarks. The new species is closely related to  P. carpathicus Balan &amp; Sergienko, 1990 on the basis of the similar position and length of homologous dorsal setae, shape and extension of peritrematal shield, and general appearance of the sculptural pattern. Distingushing characters of the two species are presented in Table 3. However the shape of anterior opisthonotal setae (especially J1 and Z1) shows gradual variation in some species—for example Mašán &amp; Fenďa (2004) drew attention to this phenomenon in  P. carsticus , supporting the junior synonym status of  P. ukrainicus . The other characters listed confirm that specimens from Pindus Mts. are different from  P. carpathicus . After examination of  P. carpathicus specimens from several locations of the Carpathian basin and the Carpathians it seems that the characters on the basis of which I distinguish the two species are constant and do not show variation, neither at the level of individuals, nor populations. </p>

            <p>Male (Figs 22–23). Length of idiosoma: 245–252 μm (247 μm); width: 188–193 μm (190 µm) (n = 3). Chaetotaxy, poroidotaxy and sculptural pattern of dorsal, ventrianal and peritrematal shields similar to those of female, except setae j5 smooth and needle-like. Peritrematal setae r1 often barbed. Length of opisthonotal setae and distances between their insertions as in Table 8. Sternigenital shield bearing four pairs of setae, a weakly sclerotised slit between level of setae st1 and st2 can often be observed. Shape of peritrematal shield similar to that of female, its posterolateral tips reaching level of R5.</p>
            <p>Protonymph (Fig. 24). Length of idiosoma: 237 μm; width: 158 μm (n = 1). Podonotal setae j1, j3, z4, r2 and s4 elongate, brush-like, plumose, others short. Short setae densely plumose except j5 and z5 barbed. Podonotal ornamentation weakly developed, gland openings not conspicuous. On opisthonotum, Z5 and S3-5 markedly elongate, brush-like, plumose. S2 half as long as S3, plumose. Setae J1-5 and Z1-4 shorter, J1 and Z1-4 pilose, J2-5 delicately barbed. Length of opisthonotal setae and distances between their insertions as in Table 8. Opisthonotum covered by large, irregular pits. Dorsal cavities weakly developed.</p>
            <p> Etymology. The species name ‘  graecus ’ refers to Greece, where the specimens were collected. </p>
            <p> Remarks. The new species belongs to the group characterised by the following features: most podonotal setae densely pilose; central and submarginal setae of opisthonotum densely pilose, S1 and R-setae short, smooth and thorn-like; setae S3-5 elongate, brush-like, extending beyond margin of opisthonotum; glands gdZ3 (Po3) situated lateral to a line connecting Z3-4. Within this group,  Prozercon graecus sp. nov. is most similar to  Prozercon plumosus Cälugär, 2004 ,  P. tragardhi (Halbert, 1923) and  P. blaszaki (Urhan &amp; Ayyildiz, 1996d) comb. nov., by the similar shape and position of setae S2 (elongate, inserted near Z1, in posterolateral position), position of gdS2 (Po2) (on line connecting S2 and Z2). The four species can be distinguished by the characters listed in Table 9. The species seems to show a large degree of variation in characters which previously served as basis for specific and even generic determination. Both divided and entire sternal shield (Figs 1, 3), smooth and pilose r1 setae occur even within a population (Figs 28–29), and the posterolateral expansion of peritrematal shield varies within a wide range (Figs 25–27). </p>
