Type Specimens of Halacarid Mites by Dr. N. G. Makarova Relocated in the Collection of the National Museum of Nature and Science, Tsukuba, Japan

抄録

Russian acarologist Dr. N. G. Makarova, an expert in the taxonomy of halacarid mites, contributed to clarifying the halacarid fauna on the coasts of the Russian Far East. The majority of halacarid specimens used for taxonomic studies by Dr. Makarova are preserved in Russia. This time, nine microscopic glass slides containing type specimens of halacarid mites prepared by Dr. Makarova were relocated to the arachnid collection of the National Museum of Nature and Science in Tsukuba Japan. The visual states of these microscopic glass slides and the condition of each specimen mounted on them are recorded with newly allotted register numbers to help locate the types and check their conditions for future taxonomic studies.
