RESUMO
Four species of eriophyoid mites are recorded from Iran, of which three represent new records and the other is a new species. These species are: Brevulacus salicinus n. sp. (Diptilomiopidae), found on Salix sp. (Salicaceae); Aceria wallichianae Keifer, 1975 from Ulmus minor (Ulmaceae); Aceria granulata Carmona, 1972 from Verbascum spp. (Scrophulariaceae) and Tegnacus unicornutus Pye, 2012 from Carpinus betulus (Betulaceae).

A new species, Epitrimerus chaenomeli n. sp., is described and illustrated in this paper. The description is based on the morphology of protogynes, deutogynes and nymphs. This new species was recorded on Chaenomeles x superba (Frahm) Rehder and its cultivar Crimson and Gold (Rosaceae) which have not previously been noted as a host for eriophyoid mites. Mites of this species caused slight rusting on the under-surfaces of infested leaf blades. In addition, a list of all known species of Epitrimerus found on Rosaceae is also provided.
