Elattoma kornilovi Khaustov, 2000
World distribution – Crimea, in association with beetles Dryocoetes villosus (Fabricius) and Taphrorychus villifrons (Dufour) (Col.: Curculionidae : Scolytinae ) ( Khaustov 2000).
Material examined – One mite colony including six specimens attached to ventral body surface (around coxae II-III) of Morimus verecundus (Faldermann) (Col.: Cerambycidae ) was found. The hosts captured directly in forest of Gorgan, Bandar-E-Gaz, Nokandeh and Kordkoy during Summer 2013–14.
Remarks – Morimus verecundus is a new host record for this mite. Also, this species is a new record for mite fauna of Asia.
