Abstract
Acarid mites were isolated from samples collected in Seoul during the period of October 1975 to August 1978. Samples consisted of stored foods such as rice, flour, sugar, dried fishes, dusts of houses and freight offices. The identified mites were classified into 12 species belonging to 12 genera, 5 families as following lists, of which 4 species (*) are newly recorded in Korea. Family Acaridae Ewing and Nesbitt, 1942: Tyrophagus putrescentiae (Schrank, 1781).
Acarus siro Linnaeus, 1758. Aleuroglyphus ovatus* Troupeau, 1879. Suidasia nesbitti Hughes, 1948. Rhizoglyphus echinopus (Fumouze and Robin, 1868). Caloglyphus berlesei (Michael, 1903). Lardoglyphus konoi (Sasa and Asanuma, 1951). Family Carpoglyphidae Oudemans, 1972: Carpoglyphus lactis Linnaeus, 1927. Family Glyphagidae Berlese, 1887: Glycyphagus destructor (Schrank, 1781). Gohieria fusca* (Oudemans, 1903). Family Chortoglyphidae Berlese, 1897: Chortoglyphus arcuatus* (Troupeau, 1879). Family Pyroglyphidae Cunliffe, 1958: Euroglyphus maynei* (Cooremant 1950).
