LXXVIII (И, К); Evans & Till 1966: 281, fig. 67, C-D, 68, 69, A-G; Herrin 1970: 411, figs 30–32; Senotrusova 1987: 89, fig. 42; Mašán & Fend’a 2010: 162, figs 172–177. Hirstionyssus palustris Allred & Beck 1966: 19, figs 15, 131, 222, 261, 455, 463, 558, 605. Echinonyssus talpae — Tenorio 1984: 278. Type locality : No exact locality was stated. Zemskaya (1955) mentioned H . talpae from the Moscow Region of Russia and the Transcarpathian Region of Ukraine. Type series : Unknown (possibly in EMAMS). Type host : Talpa europaea Linnaeus, 1758, the European mole. Host range : In Eurasia, the principal hosts of this mite are moles of the genus Talpa — T . europaea and T . altaica Nikol’sky, 1883 (Zemskaya 1973; Senotrusova 1987). It is very numerous in mole nests (Evans & Till 1966). In North America, the hosts of this species are the star-nosed mole [ Condylura cristata (Linnaeus, 1758)] and many species of shrews belonging to different genera ( Blarina Gray, 1838, Cryptotis Pomel, 1848, Sorex Linnaeus, 1758) [Whittaker et al . 2007]. In New Zealand, H . talpae has been recorded from the introduced Erinaeus europaeus (Linnaeus, 1758), the European hedgehog (Tenquist & Charleston 2001). Occasional findings of this parasite on different rodent hosts are known (Nikulina 2004; Mašán & Fend’a 2010). Distribution : The range of H . talpae is very wide. This mite is known from the Holarctic as well as from very distant regions such as New Zealand (Herrin 1970; Tenorio 1984; Tenquist & Charleston 2001; Whitaker et al . 2007). In Asiatic Russia, the species has been recorded from Western and Eastern Siberia (Nikulina 2004); its occurrence in the Russian Far East is also probable. : Published as part of Vinarski, Maxim V. & Korallo-Vinarskaya, Natalia P., 2020, An annotated catalogue of the gamasid mites associated with small mammals in Asiatic Russia.
