            <p>Remarks</p>
            <p> This is the first time  O. gigantica females and males have been recorded in Egypt, as well as the first description of its male and juvenile stages. Mohanasundaram (1981) described this species based on adult female from India. The morphometry of the Egyptian female resembles that in the original description with the exception of the following characters: body length, prodorsal shield length and width, number of empodium rays, length of setae c1, d, e, f and legs. Setae c1, d, e, f, legs are slightly longer and the prodorsal shield slightly larger in the Egyptian specimens than the Indian specimens; body length in the Egyptian specimens is shorter than that of the Indian specimens; and tarsal empodium in Indian specimens is 5-rayed (5/6-rayed in the Egyptian specimens) (Table 1). </p>

            <p> Cyperus rotundus L. (  Cyperaceae ). </p>
            <p>Geographical distribution</p>
            <p>India and Egypt.</p>
            <p>Relation to the host plant</p>
            <p>Vagrant underneath the inner surface of the leaf sheath surrounding the stem, causing rusted leaves; it leads to drying and death of plants.</p>
            <p>Type locality</p>
            <p>India.</p>
            <p>Material examined</p>
            <p> Twenty-one females, five males, seven nymphs, and  six larvae on eight slides (slide no. EGYErio63.2-63.9), from Qaha distinct (30° 17' 20.02" N, 31° 14' 51.85" E), Qalyubia governorate, Egypt , 23 July, 2021; all deposited in the mite reference collection of Fruit Trees Mites Department, Plant Protection Research Institute, Agricultural Research Centre, Egypt.   Four females and two males on two slides from the same previous plant material, 15  Nov. , 2023, deposited in the mite reference collection of the Egyptian Society of Acarology Museum at (ESAM), Zoology and Agricultural Nematology Department, the Faculty of Agriculture, Cairo University, Giza governorate, Egypt  .   Four slides (slide no. EgCL01-04) deposited in the mite collection of  Department of Plant , Soil and Food Sciences (Di.S.S.P.A.), University of Bari Aldo Moro, Italy  .   Two slides with the same data, deposited in the  College of Agriculture and Forestry, West Virginia University, USA (WVU)  .   Some specimens from the same previous plant material, 15  Nov. , 2023, deposited in Zoological Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences (ZIN RAS), Russia  . </p>
            <p>Remarks</p>
            <p> Eriophyes rotundae was described by Mohanasundaram (1983) on  C. rotundus . The description of the male of this species was brief whereas immatures were never described. Therefore a detailed description for males and immatures are given herein. The Egyptian females differ from the India specimens in the following: number of ventral semiannuli 70 (74–77 in the Egyptian specimens); length of legs I and II 22 and 22, respectively (32–35 and 29–32, respectively in Egyptian specimens); opisthosomal setae are shorter for setae c2 20 (25 in the Egyptian specimens), d 15 (27 in the Egyptian specimens), and e 10 (13 in the Egyptian specimens); length and width of genital coverflap (Table 2). A careful examination of Mohanasundaram's drawings shows that Setae d of Indian specimens is longer than setae c2. So probably Mohanasundaram made a typo and this difference is negligible. The remaining differences may be because of the difference in environmental conditions, (genotype of the host plant, climatic conditions, plant physiology) at which slide preparation technique, operator skills, microscope quality, or the quality of the microscope equipment used. </p>
