Rhinoseius androdon Fain & Hyland 1980
Description
Rhinoseius androdon Fain & Hyland, 1980
This mite was described from material from the hummingbird Androdon aequatorialis from Colombia, and later collected from the hummingbirds Amazilia rosenbergi (Boucard, 1895), Phaethornis yaruqui (Bourcier, 1851) and Thalurania colombica (Bourcier, 1843) and the plant Cavendishia sp. (Ohmer et al., 1991). Naskrecki & Colwell (1998) reported it from Cavendishia coccinea and consider the flowers of plant family Ericaceae to be typical plant hosts at higher elevations.
Material examined. Two males and 2 females from Chalybura urochrysia, Barbilla NP, September 2004, coll. I. Literak.
