Amblyseius bellatulus (Tseng, 1983)
|
Amblyseius bellatulus Tseng is a species of mite in the Phytoseiidae family that is native to Taiwan. It was described by Tseng Yi-Hsiung in 1983.[1] Following his retirement, Tseng's collection of more than 20 holotypes of Taiwanese phytoseiid fauna were lost.[2] A. Bellatulus re-described in 2017 by a team from National Taiwan University led by Liao Jhih-Rong, who collected new specimens of phytoseiid mites from the original locale used by Tseng as well as other areas throughout Taiwan.[3]
