Genus Cryptoparlatoreopsis Borchsenius, 1947

Genus diagnosis. This genus is distinguished by the following characters: (i) pupillarial habit; (ii) digitiform fleshy marginal processes usually present on the pygidium and prepygidial segments; (iii) pygidium and sometimes prepygidium provided with robust, long and flexible marginal setae; (iv) anterior spiracles usually with pores in most of known species; (v) second lobes, if present, small and usually conical; and (vi) orifice of marginal ducts surrounded by sclerotized rim.

Comments: Cryptoparlatoreopsis currently includes seven species. Three are distributed in the desert zone from central Asia to the Atlantic, including in Iran, on the woody parts of Tamarix and Ziziphus: C. halli (Bodenheimer 1929), C. meccae (Hall 1927) and C. tlaiae (Balachowsky 1927) . Four others are found in the Oriental Region, including India and Myanmar: C. euphorbiae Hall & Williams 1962, C. longispina (Takahashi 1939), C. spinosissima (Lindinger 1911) and C. targioniopsis (Lindinger 1911) (García Morales et al. 2016) .
