Checklist

5 genera, 6 species

• Guntheria apteryxi Loomis & Goff, 1983 E ZooBank
• Microtrombicula hoplodactyla Goff, Loomis & Ainsworth, 1988 E ZooBank
• Neotrombicula naultini (Dumbleton, 1947) E ZooBank
• Neotrombicula sphenodonti Goff, Loomis & Ainsworth, 1988 E ZooBank
• Odontacarus lygosomae (Dumbleton, 1947) E ZooBank

NZIB checklist [pp. 85, 86]

LEEUWENHOEKIIDAE

• Odontacarus lygosomae (Dumbleton, 1947)

TROMBICULIDAE

• Guntheria (Derrickiella) apteryxi Loomis & Goff, 1983
• Neotrombicula hoplodactyla Goff, Loomis & Ainsworth, 1987
• Neotrombicula naultini (Dumbleton, 1947)
• Neotrombicula sphenodonti Goff, Loomis & Ainsworth, 1987
• Whartonacarus sp.

Notes

• the problems/errors with the NZIB list are as follows:
  • recognition of LEEUWENHOEKIIDAE as a distinct family, contra Shatrov & Kudryashova (2008)
  • all the described species should be presumed endemic to N.Z.
  • the actual publication date of the Goff, Loomis & Ainsworth article is 1988, see ZooBank
