The 7th volume of my series “Acarorum Catalogus” concerns the mite superfamily Raphignathoidea. The 12 families of this superfamily consist of 69 genera and some 1087 species and are being studied intensely, particularly by acarologists from China, South Africa, Turkey, Iran, Crimea and other countries or areas. Some members of the Raphignathoidea are suitable for biological pest control (Gerson & Smiley 1990, Gerson, Smiley & Ochoa, 2003).
Raphignathoidea Kramer, 1877; Grandjean, 1944: 104
The superfamily Raphignathoidea contains many predators of small invertebrates. Some are herbivores and others parasites. Some of the predatory Raphignathoidea are suitable for biological pest control. They are bred and released to control such plant pests as gall mites (Eriophyidae), spider mites (Tetranychidae) or scale insects (Coccoidea) in agriculture and forestry.
This is a diverse and widespread group of mites, containing about 69 genera and some 1087 species in 12 families: Barbutiidae, Caligonellidae, Camerobiidae, Cryptognathidae, Dasythyreidae, Dytiscacaridae, Eupalopsellidae, Homocaligidae, Mecognathidae, Raphignathidae, Stigmaeidae, and Xenocaligonellididae. Nine of them have been described after 1944. Half of all genera and most of all species of the superfamily (636 species) form the biggest family Stigmaeidae, several other families consisting of few and rarely found species (Barbutiidae, Dasythyreidae, Homocaligidae, Mecognathidae and Xenocaligonellidae contain less than ten known species). The recently described family Dytiscacaridae contains so far only three species.
Until the end of 19th Century have been described only two valid genera (Raphignathus Dugès, 1834 and Stigmaeus Koch, 1836) and several valid species by Dugès, C.L. Koch, Kramer, Berlese and Canestrini. By 1944 only three families (Raphignathidae Kramer, 1877, Cryptognathidae Oudemans, 1902 and Stigmaeidae Oudemans, 1931) were in scientific use, with 9 valid genera. Starting with the description of Caligonellidae Grandjean, 1944, a real revolution took place in the system of Raphignathoidea, with the description of Eupalopsellidae Willmann, 1952, Camerobiidae Southcott, 1957, Homocaligidae Wood, 1970, Barbutiidae Robaux, 1975, Xenocaligonellidae Gonzalez, 1978, Dasythyreidae Walter et Gerson, 1998 and Mecognathidae Gerson et Walter, 1898, of many new genera and species by acarologists from South Africa, New Zealand, Australia, Brazil, Turkey, Iran, India, China (incl. Taiwan), Japan, USA, Israel, Holland, France, Germany, Ireland, Pakistan, Egypt, Russia, Ukraine, the Philippines, and other countries. In some countries (New Zealand, China, Turkey, Iran) the research has bein particularly intensive, resulting of long lists of genera and species, only to indicate the minimal knowledge we have about the Raphignathoid mites of most other countries.
Some revisions and surveys took place. We shall mark here only the ones on Camerobiidae (Bolland, 1986, 1991), Caligonellidae (Summers & Schlinger, 1955), Eupalopsellidae (Meyer (Smith) & Ueckermann, 1984), Stigmaeidae, Barbutiidae (Fan, Walter & Proctor, 2003), The lists of Raphignathoidea of Turkey (Doğan, 2007, 2019), Pakistan (Halliday, Kamran & Bashir, 2018), China (Cheng & Fan, 2008, 2010), Hawaii (Swift, 1996), South Africa (Meyer-Smith & Ueckermann, 1989), Iran (Beyzavi et al., 2013) and especially the modern fauna of New Zealand (Fan & Zhang, 2005) should also be noted. A modern annotated catalogue of the largest family (Stigmaeidae) is due to Fan, Flechtmann & de Moraes (2016, 2019).
Barbutiidae Robaux, 1975: 480
Small family, known from Europe, Asia (Turkey, Iran), Australia and North America. To its study contributed mostly Oudemans (1927) who described the genus Barbutia, Robaux (1975) who raised it to family rank and described two more species from North America, the Iranian and Turkish acarologists and Fan, Walter & Proctor (2003) who added two more species from Australia.

Caligonellidae Grandjean, 1944: 105
The Caligonellidae include five genera and ca. 60 species (plus many other undescribed species of Neognathus from dry soils in western North America and Australia). They are small, mostly soft bodied orange to red mites associated with dry soils, but are also found on bark, in bird nests, on low growing plants, and occasionally in litter overlying wet soil (Walter, Lindquist, Smith, Cook & Krantz, 2009). The family was studied mainly by Berlese (the first described genus Caligonella in 1910, after the species Stigmaeus humilis C.L. Koch), Grandjean, who raised this only known genus in 1944 as a separate family. Followed the article of Willmann (1952), the revision of Summers & Schlinger (1955), the phylogenetic analysis of Fan (2000) and the many contributions of acarologists from China, USA (incl. Hawaii), Iran, Turkey, Ukraine, Russia, South Africa, Egypt, Israel, Pakistan, and other countries.

Camerobiidae Southcott, 1957: 311
Seven genera and almost 170 species of stilt legged mites form this family. Camerobiids are found in leaf mold, on or under tree bark, or on vegetation or epiphytes in temperate and tropical realms. They feed on plant pests such as scale insects and plant parasitic mites (Walter et al., 2009).
The first description of a member of this family is due to Berlese (1886) – Neophyllobius elegans from Italy. One century after Berlese Bolland (1986, 1991) provided revision of the group and described the new genera Decaphyllobius, Tillandsobius and Tycherobius. During this century have been described only 26 species (by Berlese, Canestrini, Banks, McGregor, Gerson, Soliman & Zaher, Zaher & Gomaa, Bolland, Meyer, de Leon, Indira, Rao & Thakur, Smiley & Moser, Meyer & Ryke, Kuznetzov & Livshitz, Womersley, Oudemans, Summers & Schlinger. After 1983 Bolland described (alone or with co-authors) also 65 of the 169 accepted species in the family. The family Camerobiidae and the type genus Camerobia have been described by Southcott (1957). After the revision of Bolland only two new genera have been added (Bisetulobius du Toit, Theron et Ueckermann, 1998 and Acamerobia Fan et Walter, 2011), but many more species have been decribed mostly from USA (26, without Hawaii), South Africa (22), Turkey (15), Iran (4), Israel (8), China and other countries by the researchers du Toit, Theron & Ueckermann (1998), Doğan & Ayyıldız (2003), Khanjani & Ueckermann (2002), Koç & Madanlar (2002), Bolland & Swift (2000), Fan (2001), Bolland & Mehrnejad (2001), Akyol & Koç (2006). Now the bulk of the family is contained in the genus Neophyllobius, until 1983 considered to represent a separate family Neophyllobiidae.

Tiny (300–400 µm) red mites, living in moss, leaf litter, on plants, under stones. Predaceous, feed on small arthropods. Three genera with ca. 66 valid species. After the description of Cryptognathus Kramer, 1879 was needed almost a century for the next genus Favognathus Luxton, 1973 and the major contributions were made by Ayyıldız, Chaudhri, Doğan, Dönel, Fan, Hirst, Koç, Krantz, Kuznetsov, Livshitz, Luxton, McDaniel, Moser, Robaux, Smiley, Smith Meyer, Summers, Swift, Ueckermann, Zhang and others. Summers & Chaudhri (1965) described 10 species, before this publication have been described only five sp. (by Kramer, 1879, Berlese, 1916, Hirst, 1926, Krantz, 1958, Meyer & Ryke, 1960) and after it – another 41 species and two of the three genera in the family.

Homocaligidae Wood, 1970: 711
The Homocaligidae (eight sp., discovered in Europe, China, Thailand, Malaysia, USA, and South Africa) are capable of skating across the surface of water, and the adults have what appear to be accessory sacs or tubes apparently used in respiration or flotation (Walter, Lindquist, Smith, Cook & Krantz, 2009). The information concerning these mites comes mainly from C. L. Koch, Berlese, Wood, Habeeb, Fan, González-Rodríguez, Wainstein, Meyer et Ryke.

Raphignathidae Kramer, 1877: 215
More than 75 species of the family Raphignathidae have been described from around the world, found on or beneath tree bark, in moss, and in dry organic litter, sometimes in synanthropic habitats, such as house dust or stored grain. The first family described in Raphignathoidea still consists only of three genera and of at least 70 valid species. After Dugès (1834) and Kramer (1877) the family has been studied by numerous acarologists, including Smiley & Moser, 1968 (having described the second genus in Raphignathidae), Atyeo, Baker & Crossley (1961), Atyeo (1963), Athias-Henriot (1961), Fan & Yin (2000), Fan & Zhang (2005), Mitra & Mitra (1953), Robaux (1976), Kuznetsov (1976), Shiba (1969), Meyer & Ryke (1960), Smith-Meyer & Ueckermann (1989), Womersley (1937), Zaher & Gomaa (1980), and, recently, by many Turkish (Doğan, Ayyıldız) and Iranian (Ahaniazad, Bagheri, Akrami, Majidi, Gharakhany, Zarei) acarologists. Willmann (1951) described the genus Acheleopsis, based on a species inquirenda.
