            <p> Neocypholaelaps Vitzthum, 1942: 763 . replacement name for  Cypholaelaps (preoccupied)  Neocypholaelaps .— Evans, 1963a: 210. </p>
            <p> Asperolaelaps Womersley, 1956: 534 (synonymy according to Domrow, 1979). Type species:  Laelaps ampullula Berlese, 1910 . </p>
            <p>The following characterisation of the genus is mostly based on Evans (1963a), with slight modifications to accommodate more recently described species. Cheliceral digits edentate or with a single subapical tooth; fixed digit with a transparent lobed structure, probably representing a modified pilus dentilis; epistome with anterior margin serrated; corniculus undivided, convergent, surrounded by a hyaline membrane. Dorsal shield weakly ornamented, with 28, 30 or, most commonly, 29 pairs of setae, of which j1 is generally stout and always barbed. Sternal shield with two pairs of setae; st3 usually inserted on platelets and st4 inserted on unsclerotised cuticle; opistogastric setae always on unsclerotised cuticle. Peritreme usually extending at least up to level of coxa I (between setae j1 and j2). All legs with pulvillus and a pair of well developed claws; leg chaetotaxy (femur, genu, tibia and tarsi, respectively): leg I: 12, 12, 12, -; leg II: 10, 11, 10, 18; leg III: 6, 9, 8, 18; leg IV: 6, 9, 9, 18.</p>

            <p> Material examined. Holotype female and one paratype female from inflorescences of  Geonoma brevispatha Barb. Rodr. (Arecaceae) , São Pedro, State of São Paulo, Brazil, May 16, 2000, collected by L.V.F. da Silva; 5 paratype females and 1 paratype male, November 11, 2000, other data as for holotype; 1 paratype female and 1 paratype male, August 10, 2000, other data as for holotype; 2 paratype males from inflorescences of  Geonoma schottiana Mart. , in Cananéia, State of São Paulo, Brazil, April 19, 2000. All paratypes collected by G.P. Arruda. The types are deposited at Departamento de Entomologia e Acarologia, Escola Superior de Agricultura “Luiz de Queiroz”, Universidade de São Paulo, Piracicaba, State of São Paulo, Brazil. </p>
            <p> Etymology. The name  geonomae refers to “from  Geonoma ”, the genus of the plant substrate on which the types were collected. </p>
            <p> Remarks. This new species fits the characterisation of  Neocypholaelaps by having dorsal shield not rugose, undivided corniculi, cheliceral digits edentate or with a single subapical tooth and all legs with a pair of claws. It is similar to  N. stridulans (Evans, 1955) ,  N. favus Ishikawa, 1968 ,  N. varipilosa Elsen, 1972 a and  N. apicola Delfinado-Baker &amp; Baker, 1983 . However, the female of  N. stridulans has the sternal shield longer than wide, each seta st3 inserted on a platelet, and a spermathecal apparatus with tubuli fused into a single structure that leads to the sacculus, as shown by Evans (1963a) for  N. cocos Evans, 1963 a. The female  N. favus has setae j6 and z5 barbed, while the male has all dorsal shield setae elongate and with sharp tips. Female of  N. varipilosa has narrower dorsal shield (about 1.6 as opposed to about 1.3 as long as wide in the new species here described), seta j4 smooth, sternal shield reticulated and no platelet posterolaterad of Jv1. The female of  N. apicola has distinctly shorter seta j5 and granulate opisthogastric striae; the male of the latter is however readily distinguished from that of the new species, by having dorsal shield setae elongate and with sharp tips and ventri-anal shield with 3 pairs of setae. </p>
            <p> The distinctly less convergent corniculi of one of the males of this new species do not correspond to what is typical for species in this genus; according to Evans (1963a),  Neocypholaelaps species have convergent corniculi. However, the seemingly abnormal orientation of the corniculi of that male is most probably due to the mobility of these structures, as indicated by Evans (1963a). </p>

            <p> Key to world species of  Neocypholaelaps</p>
            <p> The following key is provided to help in the separation of the world species of  Neocypholaelaps . Unless otherwise specified, the characteristics refer to adult females. It was constructed taking into account the original descriptions of the species; also of great importance in this process were additional information in Evans (1963a), Baker &amp; Delfinado-Baker (1985) and Halliday (1997).  Neocypholaelaps ewae Haitlinger, 1987 was not included in this key because the reduced number of dorsal shield setae (19 pairs) and the fact that almost all of those are smooth (j1 is barbed) and pointed indicate that this species might belong to  Hattena Domrow (see Halliday, 1997). The fact that the type specimens of that species, including adults of both sexes (as well as immatures), were found on the insect carrier also suggests that it belongs to  Hattena , given that males of  Neocypholaelaps are rarely found on phoretic carriers, as summarised by Halliday (1997).  Neocypholaelaps lindquisti Prasad, 1968 was also not included in the key, because it was transferred to  Afrocypholaelaps Elsen by Haitlinger (1987).  Neocypholaelaps hongkongensis Mo, 1969 is included provisionally in the key, as there is a chance that it actually belongs to  Afrocypholaelaps . The species known in the latter genus are characterised by the mostly smooth dorsal shield; the smooth, pointed and nearly uniform dorsal shield setae; the reduced or absent tarsal claws; and the reduced number of setae on genu and tibia III (Elsen, 1972b; Halliday, 1997). Nothing was mentioned in the description of  A. hongkongensis about the presence or absence of leg tarsal claws or leg chaetotaxy, but it was reported that its dorsal shield is smooth and that most of its setae are smooth, pointed and nearly uniform. </p>
