Ordo: Mesostigmata
Familia: Trachyuropodidae
Name
Phymatodiscus Berlese, 1917 – Wikispecies link – Pensoft Profile
- Discopoma (Phymatodiscus) Berlese, 1917: 12.
Type species
Discopoma miranda Berlese, 1905: 159, by original designation.
Diagnosis
Phymatodiscid species lacking a pair of eye-like dorsal depressions. Margins of idiosoma with or without many prolongations.
List of the known species Remarks. One species, Phymatodiscus titanicus (Berlese, 1905), is transferred here from the family Phymatodiscidae to the family Trachyuropodidae Berlese, 1917. According to the dorsal characteristics (only these were illustrated by Berlese 1905[1]: fig. 13), our opinion is that this species belongs to the genus Bostocktrachys, as B. titanicus (Berlese, 1905) comb. nov., given that Berlese’s species has strongly sclerotized idiosoma and a deep transversal furrow on the dorsal shield (Kontschán and Ermilov 2023c[2]).

Discopoma conifera Canestrini, 1897: 461, 470.
Phymatodiscus coniferus—Hirschmann 1977[3]: 60–61.
Occurrence and biology. This species has been found in New Guinea, but its habitat is unknown (Canestrini 1897[4]).

Phymatodiscus ignesemovens Hirschmann, 1977: 64.
Occurrence and biology. This species has been found in New Guinea, but its habitat is unknown (Hirschmann 1977[3]).
Phymatodiscus iriomotensis Hiramatsu, 1979
Phymatodiscus iriomotensis Hiramatsu, 1979: 108–109.
Occurrence and biology. This species was described from leaf litter in Japan (Hiramatsu 1985[5]).
