RÉSUM~ : Deux espèces nouvelles d'eriophyides, transmettant une grave maladie à
virus au blé et au millet des Oiseaux quand ils sont plantés ensembles, sont
décrites.
In the north-west districts of our country there
is a serious plant virus disease which occurs when
wheat and prosomillet are planted ~9gether. Formerly we always misunderstand that the virus of
this disease was transmitted by Aceria tulipae keifeir (Acarina : Eriophyidae), just the same as
wheat virus diseases in other countries. Recently
we have observed that there are two kinds of
symptom of this disease, one causing stems to
curve, and the other, leaves to roll. The studies
on its !ife history and its damage to the host
plants caused by virus will be reported elsewhere.
Throught this work two new species of
eriophyid mite, which transmit these diseases, are
described and discussed. The observations seem
to be the first record of eriophyid mites in the
People's Republic of China.

REMARKS:
So far as the writers are aware, three species of
eriophyid with causing serious damage on wheat
have hitherto been known from the world, that
is : A. tulipae (k.) in North America, A . Tenuis
(Na!.) in Eur,ope and . A. tritici Shevtchenko in
Soviet Union. The two new species in our
country are also serious pests, and resemble the
3 species mentioned above, but can be distinguished by the following characters :
1. The striation and length of shield, the number
of dorsal and ventral ring and length of genital
coverflap are different.
· 2. The rostrum resembles that of A. tulipae and
A. tenuis, but differs from that of A. tritici.
3. Length of dorsal setae shorter than in A. tulipae and tritici, but similar to A. tenuis.
