Abstract

Abstract A new monotypic fossil family Unguicheylidae fam. nov. with type genus and species Unguicheylus quadriocellatus gen. nov., sp. nov. is described from the early-Cretaceous (Albian–lower Cenomanian) amber of northern Siberia (Taimyr amber, Baikura locality). The new family is provisionally placed in the superfamily Anystoidea and most similar to the family Pseudocheylidae, but differs mainly in having apomorphically adnate cheliceral bases (free, mobile bases in Pseudocheylidae), and the tarsi of all legs lacking annulated pretarsal stalks bearing reduced claws (present, apomorphic to Pseudocheylidae).

Unguicheylidae家人。2011年11月，白垩纪泰米尔琥珀中发现一新的前柱头螨化石科(蜱螨目:前柱头螨科)

摘要:一种新的单型化石科。十一月与模式属和种Unguicheylus quadriocellatus gen. nov.， sp.十一月来自西伯利亚北部(Baikura地区Taimyr琥珀)早白垩世(albian -下Cenomanian)琥珀。这个新科暂时被置于任何足总科中，与假足科最相似，但主要不同之处在于它们具有非对称的附着性螯基(假足科中游离的、可移动的基)，以及所有腿的跗部都缺乏带减少爪的环状前柄(存在，与假足科不对称)。

期刊介绍： Systematic and Applied Acarology (SAA) is an international journal of the Systematic and Applied Acarology Society (SAAS). The journal is intended as a publication outlet for all acarologists in the world. There is no page charge for publishing in SAA. If the authors have funds to publish, they can pay US$20 per page to enable their papers published for open access. SAA publishes papers reporting results of original research on any aspects of mites and ticks. Due to the recent increase in submissions, SAA editors will be more selective in manuscript evaluation: (1) encouraging more high quality non-taxonomic papers to address the balance between taxonomic and non-taxonomic papers, and (2) discouraging single species description (see new special issues for single new species description) while giving priority to high quality systematic papers on comparative treatments and revisions of multiple taxa. In addition to review papers and research articles (over 4 printed pages), we welcome short correspondence (up to 4 printed pages) for condensed version of short papers, comments on other papers, data papers (with one table or figure) and short reviews or opinion pieces. The correspondence format will save space by omitting the abstract, key words, and major headings such as Introduction.
