Duges hesitated whether to place the species from which we have named this genus among the Tetranychi or Raphignathi. It appears to us to come so near Bryobia that it would not be well to place it apart from it, and yet too different to be put in the same genus. We have therefore thought it better to make a separate genus for it. Petrobia lapidum {Koch). Trombidium lapidum {Rcrm., Apt. pi. vii.); Tetranychus cristatus {Diiges, Ann. Sc. Nat. 1834).—23.
