Legs I 40 (38–41) long, femur 10 (10–11), basiventral femoral setae bv 12 (11–12); genu 5 (4–5) long, antaxial genual setae l’’ 25 (23–27) long; tibia 8 (7–8), paraxial tibial setae l’ 6 (5–7), setae located at center of the tibia; tarsus 7 (6–7) long; tarsal empodium simple, 6­rayed, tarsal solenidion T tapered. Legs II 39 (36–39) long, femur 10 (9–10), basiventral femoral setae bv 12 (12–13); genu 5 (4–5) long, antaxial genual setae l’’ 11 (9–12) long; tibia 6 (6–7); tarsus 7 (5–7) long; tarsal empodium simple, 6­rayed, tarsal solenidion T tapered. Dorsal opisthosoma with 40 (38–41) annuli, smooth; ventral opisthosoma with 51 (50–52) smooth annuli. Setae c2 30 (30–31) on ventral annulus 7 (6–7); setae d 30 (29–30) on ventral annulus 16 (16–17); setae e 33 (30–35) on ventral annulus 33 (32–35); setae f 30 (30–31) on 6th ventral annulus from rear. Setae h1 5 (5–6) long. Female genitalia 12 (11–13) long, 20 (19–20) wide, coverflap with 8 longitudinal ridges, setae 3a on coxisternum III 22 (20–25) long.</p> <p>MALE: (n = 7) 150–160 long, 50–54 wide; genitalia 3–4 long, 18–19 wide, setae 3a on coxisternum III 12–15 long.</p> <p>Material examined</p> <p>Holotype, female, from Lycium chinense Mill. (Solanaceae), Guan’e Gou, Dangchang County, Gansu Province, China, 33°57’39”N, 104°19’45”E, 12 September 2005, collected by X.­F. Xue and Z.­W. Song. Paratypes, 12 females and 7 males, with the same date as holotype.</p> <p>Relation to host Mites are vagrant on the undersurface of leaves, causing no apparent damage.</p> <p>Etymology The specific designation lyciumi is from the generic name of the host plant, Lycium.</p> <p>Note</p> <p>This species is similar to Phyllocoptes fabris Xue &amp; Hong, 2005, but can be differentiated by prosternal apodeme on coxal area present (absent in fabris), ventral annuli smooth (ventral annuli with microtubercles in fabris), female genital coverflap with 8 longitudinal ridges (with 6 diagonal ridges in fabris).</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/5D38177DAF77FFB34C20FBC2FC71FC36	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
