Abstract

To enhance modern morphological keys, micrographs and detailed drawings of the holotypes of Brevipalpus olivicola Pegazzano & Castagnoli, Brevipalpus rotai (Castagnoli & Pegazzano), and Brevipalpus mitrofanovi (Pegazzano) are provided, showcasing refined morphological features, along with ontogenetic changes in leg chaetotaxy. Furthermore, Brevipalpus olivicola is compared to Brevipalpus oleae Baker, since there are suspicions that it may be a synonym of B. oleae. (AU)
