....(e.g. Dupont 1979; Mollet Sevacherian 1984) Meyer (1987) after reviewing studies known to her by then, followed Dupont (1979) in considering T. cinnabarinus as a synonym of T. urticae. This was generally accepted in several subsequent books by specialists of the Tetranychidae (e.g. Ehara 1993; Baker Tuttle 1994; Bolland et al. 1998) A recent study using morpho 70 SYSTEMATIC APPLIED ACAROLOGY VOL. 5 logical, biological and molecular data (Kuang Cheng 1990) showed distinctions between T. urticae (populations from UK and China) and T. cinnabarinus (from China) Unfortunately this important study was ....
....differences between two species. Meyer (1987) also questioned the use of colour in separating species of this complex. It is unfortunate therefore that the green form of this complex is commonly referred to as T. urticae and the red form as T. cinnabarinus in the literature on Tetranychidae (e.g. Baker Tuttle 1994). However, it should be noted that in most other parts of the world, T. cinnabarinus is red in colour and the green form has never been reported (e.g. Meyer 1987; Kuang Cheng 1990; Baker 1994 Tuttle) The green mites identified by Dillion (1958: 446) as British T. telarius (L. may be related ....
