Remarks
This species was originally placed in the genus Tyrophagus ( AthiasHenriot 1961) when the position of Tyroborus was questionable at that time. According to the present definition (see generic diagnosis above) in this paper we consider that it should be moved to Tyroborus .
Tyroborus miripes (AthiasHenriot) can be readily distinguished from T. lini Oudemans by having prominent proral setae on tarsi and solenidion ' on genu I being not shorter than ". In the illustration of the supracoxal seta ( Fig. 2 View FIGURE 2 ) AthiasHenriot (1961) gave more than one hundred pectinations. According to our observation on the paratypes and other materials the supracoxal seta has 32 (32–34) pectionations in male and 38 (38–46) pectionations in female.
