Type material

Holotype, female (slide number 783, marked Holotype), from Berberis amurensis Rupr.(Berberidaceae), Mengda Natural Reserve, Xunhua County, Qinghai Province, P. R. China, 35°47'38"N, 102°40'40"E, elevation 2523m, 19 July 2007, coll. Xiao-Feng Xue. Paratypes, 8 females and 1 male (slide number 783), with the same data as holotype.

Relation to host

Vagrant on leaf lower surface. No damage to the host was observed.

Etymology

The specific designation berberinus is from the generic name of host plant, Berberis; masculine in gender.

Differential diagnosis

This species is similar to Diptacus maddenis Song, Xue & Hong, 2007a, but can be differentiated from the latter by opisthosomal dorsal annuli smooth (opisthosomal dorsal annuli with elongated microtubercles in Diptacus maddenis), female genital coverflap with short lines at the base (genital coverflap with granules in Diptacus maddenis), tarsal empodium 7-rayed (4-rayed in Diptacus maddenis).
