FIGURE 5. Main differences between genera Amiracarus Miko n in Oribatid mite fossils from pre-Quaternary sediments in Slovenian caves II. Amiracarus pliocennatus n.gen., n.sp. (Microzetidae) from Pliocene, with comments on the other species of the genus

FIGURE 5. Main differences between genera Amiracarus Miko n. gen. (A–C) and Miracarus Kunst 1959 (D–F), based on the type species (Amiracarus senensis—left, Miracarus hurkai—right, reconstructed from holotype figure, see Fig. 1). Dorsal view of whole body (A and D): proportion between length of prodorsum and length of notogaster (grey arrows); proportion of width of prodorsum and width of notogaster (black arrows); position of interlamellar setae; form of pteromorphs; position of seta e2—in relation to setae in row c2–cp–e2–f2; position of the seta h3—in relation to the seta in row h –h2–h3. Lateral view of anterior part of the body (B and E): form of pteromorph; development of tutoria and tutorial cusps; size and form of pedotectum I. Development of the sensilus (C and F).
