Abstract

A new species of oribatid mite belonging to the family Haplozetidae, Baloghiella foveolata sp. nov., is described from Iran. The new species is characterized by the presence of round foveolae on the notogaster and ventral plate, long sensilli with a strongly dilated head that is pointed distally, strongly thickened lamellar setae, large sacculi with a long narrow neck and a short body length. An amended generic diagnosis is proposed.
