尖棱甲螨科分类研究进展及区系分析

尖棱甲螨科Ceratozetidae隶属于蛛形纲Arachnida甲螨亚目Oribatida尖棱甲螨总科Ceratozetoidea,是种类较多、分布较广的高等甲螨类群之一,目前全世界共记载24属271种,中国仅7属11种。本文概述了尖棱甲螨科的分类研究现状,回顾了其230多年的分类研究历史,并介绍了研究该类群的代表人物及其成就。同时也介绍了世界及中国尖棱甲螨科各属种的地理分布状况,指出了目前对该类群的研究不均衡、基础薄弱等主要问题,建议当前和今后较长时间内应以种类收集和描述为主,加强国际交流与合作,推动该类群研究的发展。

Research Progress on Classification and Fauna Analysis of Ceratozetidae

Ceratozetidae belongs to the superfamily Ceratozetoidea under the suborder Oribatida of class Arachnida.It is one of the richest group which has more widely distribution in the higher Oribatid mites.24 genera and 271 species recorded globally,and only 7 genera 11 species recorded in China.In this paper,more than 230 years research histories of the family Ceratozetidae were comprehensively reviewed,representative personage and their studies in the field of taxonomic research are introduced.Besides,taxonomic research of this family in China is also reviewed,the geographic distribution of all species in the family Ceratozetidae both home and abroad is mentioned.The major questions existing in taxonomic research of the family were pointed out,such as the imbalance of current study in this group,weak infrastructure and other major issues.In order to promote research and development of such groups,we should focus mainly on collecting and describing the types and strengthen international exchanges and cooperation in future long period of time.
