von Heyden (1826) established the genus Galumna with Notaspis alata Hermann, 1804 from Germanyas the type underthe family Galumnidae Jacot, 1925. The super family Galumnoidea Jacot, 1925 is one of the superfamilies under suborder Cryptostigmata of the order Acarina. These mites are commonly known as galumnid mites. The“characteristically-shaped” galumnid mites possess two wing-like “pteromorphae” at both sidesofnotogastergivingthema conspicuous look. Most of these mites are highly pigmented and heavily sclerotized.Full Text

The genus Pergalumna was established by Grandjean (1936) with Oribates nervosa Berlese, 1914 from Italy as the type xinder the family Galumnidae Jacot, 1925 and the superf amily Galumnoidea Jacot, 1925. Woodring (1962) referred the family as the most advanced pterogasterine group of mites. These mites are commonly known as galumnid mites.Full Text

Among all the soil micro- arthropods, mites are predominant and playing important role in increasing soil fertility through organic decomposition and they are inhabiting in all types of soil but predominantly found in soil litter, humus and compost heaps. Central Howrah, mainly Narasinha Dutt College and Belilious park campus is situated in a heavily polluted area which are surrounded by numerous iron factories. The present research work has been done to identify and prepare a record of the soil Galumnid mites from this region as very few works has been done on the taxonomy of this important group in this geographical area as well as in India. 7 species including 4 genera of galumnid mites are recorded for the first time from this area of study.

The numbers of aquatic ornamental plant growers and hobbyists in India are increasing because of the introduction of new hybrid lotus (Nelumbo sp) and waterlilies (Nymphaea sp) mainly from South East Asian countries.Many insect pests are damaging different parts of the plants which are also causing economic loss.Among them the larvae of Leaf cutter moth (Elophilaobliteralis), thrips (Thrips flavus, T. tabaci), spider mites (Oligonychus spp. and Tetranychus spp.), caterpillarsare common and tough to eradicate from the aquascapes and the nursery pools of the aquatic farms.Keywords
