Diaspididae: Chionaspis salicis (Linnaeus); Phylloxeridae: Phylloxerina populi del Guercio; Cheyletidae: Cheletacarus raptor Volgin; Hemisarcoptidae: Hemisarcoptes budensis Fain and Ripka; Tydeidae: Lorryia ferula Baker; Stigmaeidae: Mediolata mariaefrancae André; Acaridae: Michaelopus corticalis (Michael); Meyerellidae: Triophtydeus triophthalmus (Oudemans); Phytoseiidae: Typhlodromus cryptus Athias-Henriot [bark of branches, diaspidid species] (Fain & Ripka 1998; Ripka 2001; Ripka et al. 2002, 2005).
Leaves of Acer saccharinum. Eriophyidae: Vasates quadripedes Shimer; Phytoseiidae: Amblyseius andersoni (Chant), Euseius finlandicus (Oudemans), Kampimodromus aberrans (Oudemans), Paraseiulus talbii (Athias- Henriot); Tydeidae: Tydeus californicus (Banks), Tydeus narolicatus Kaźmierski and Ripka sp. nov.; Stigmaeidae: Zetzellia mali (Ewing) [lower side of leaves] (see present paper).

Etymology. The species is named in honour of Hungarian Saint Kinga (or Kunigunda) (1224–1292) from the House of Árpád. She was the wife of Boleslaw Wstydliwy (= Boleslaw V the Chaste) (1226–1279), the ruling prince of Poland (1243–1279). She is the patron saint of Poland and Lithuania, and a strong historic tie between Hungary and Poland. The specific name symbolizes the comity of the two nations.
