428 Acarology 



Discussion: Notaspis coleoptratus (L.) is a vector of Bertiella stu- 

 deri and Cittotaenia ctenoides in Germany, whereas Achipteria {No- 

 taspis) sp. is a vector of Anoplocephala perjoliata in Russia. 



Haplozetidae Grandjean, 1936 



Figure 364 



Diagnosis: The haplozetids have 

 movable, hinged pteromorphs. 

 Tectopedium iv is lengthened by 

 a leaflike extension. The genital 

 plates have five pairs of setae. 

 Grandjean 1936 says there are 

 occasionally four pairs of genital 

 setae in certain species.
