Zicman Feider

Zicman Feider

Zicman Feider (1903-1979) was an acarologist. He carried out the taxonomical and systematical study of many Acarina groups: "Trombidia, Ixodoidea, Oribatidae, Gamasidea, Rhinonyssidae, Erythraeidea, Prostigmata" from Romania; "Nicolletiellidae" and "Sternostoma" genus throughout the world; some groups from the fauna of Germany, of St. Helen island, North Korea, Nepal, Mongolia, and South America. Alone or in collaboration with his numerous disciples, he described over 100 species, 30 genuses, 4 subgenuses, 14 families, 6 subfamilies, 1 phalanx and 2 subphalanxes new to science. He found phylogenetic indicators in the structures of trichobotrias, aspis, and genital and anal plaques in the larva chetotaxis and visual organs at "Ixodidae" or in the breathing aparatus, metopic edge and genital structure of trombidia. He published three monographs in the "Fauna" collection of the Romanian Academy Press: "Trombidoidea" (1955), "Ixodoidea" (1965), and "Trombiculoidea". Another acarologist, Libertina Solomon, dedicated the species "Myonyssus feideri" to Zicman Feider.
