Notes:
- Denmark & Evans (2019) restored the genus Amathia
to contain the type species A. rancida and the new species then
described, A. narwai, specifically because of the presence of J1.
We consider convenient to maintain Amathia as a synonym of Neoseiulus, for considering the reasoning of Chant & McMurtry
(2003a) in addition to the fact that occurrences of J1 has also been
reported for at least a species of Amblydromalus (A. amazonicus)
and a species of Typhlodromips (T. extrasetosus), genera which do
not presente this setae in other species.;
