Key to the species of Lepidozetes in the Holarctic region
For the Palaeactic and Nearctic regions, five valid species were described; Lepidozetes bavaricus n. sp. is the sixth one. The geographical distributions are cited in the following after Subías (2013): Lepidozetes singularis Berlese, 1910 (Holarctic) ; L. latipilosus Hammer, 1952 (Holarctic) ; L. dashidorzsi Balogh et Mahunka, 1965 (Eastern Palaearctic); L. trifolius (Fujikawa, 1972) (Holarctic) ; L. umbellatus (Bugrov, 1991) (Western Asia). The characters used in the key are taken mostly from the original descriptions, in L. dashidorzsi additionally from Bayartogtokh & Aoki (1999). The structure of the tutorium is not described for L. dashidorzsi and L. trifolius .
1. Legs monodactylous (300 µm body length, anterior border of lamellar shield concave-emarginate; sensillus bacilliform smooth; interlamellar seta minute)................................................................ L. trifolius
- Legs tridactylous..................................................................................... 2
2. Anterior border of lamellar shield concave-emarginate (interlamellar seta long, sensillus fusiform)..................... 3
- Anterior border of lamellar shield convex, without concave emargination......................................... 4
3. Five pairs of genital setae; posterior part of prodorsum free; body length about 560 µm................... L. umbellatus
- Six pairs of genital setae; posterior part of prodorsum protected by lamellar shield; body length 500–560 µm. L. dashidorzsi
4. Sensillus with short stalk, head broad leaf-like; interlamellar seta long (body length about 400 µm; Tutorium with long free tip........................................................................................). L. latipilosus
- Sensillus slender claviform; interlamellar seta short.......................................................... 5
5. Tutorium with distal dens; rostral seta strong, densely barbed; body length 415–505 µm.................... L. singularis
- Tutorium rounded, without distal dens; rostral seta small, nearly smooth; body length 340–390 µm...... L. bavaricus n. sp.
