Female. Unknown.
Remarks. Neophyllobius kamalii closely resembles N. karabagiensis Akyol & Koç, 2006 in having the same femora, genua and tibiae setal formulae, but differs from the latter in the lengths of the following dorsal setae: ve 63, sci 67, sce 69, c1 95, d1 87, e1 75 and f1 52 in the new species but ve 42 sci 44, sce 39, c1 39, d1 42, e1 31 and f1 26 in N. karabagiensis .
Etymology. This species is named in honor of Prof. Karim Kamali, Department of Agricultural Entomology, Faculty of Agriculture, Tarbiat Modarres University, Iran, for his great contribution on the foundation of acarological science in last two decades.
Type materials. Holotype male and four paratype males from pomegranate leaves infested with Cenopalpus irani Dosse (Tenuipalpidae) , Shalan water spring, Dalahoo, Rijab, Kermanshah province, Iran (35° 17 ' 47'' N, 46° 59' 09'' E, 1648 m a.s.l.), 12 December 2005, Ahmad Babakfard.
The type materials are preserved as slide mounted specimens and the holotype male and three paratypes are deposited in the Acari Collection of the Department of Plant Protection, Faculty of Agriculture, University of Bu-Ali Sina, Hamedan, Iran and one paratype male is deposited in the Arachnida Collection of ARC-Plant Protection Research Institute, Pretoria, South Africa.
