Abstract

A new oribatid mite species of the genus Benoibates (Oribatida, Oripodidae) is described from Antigua Island. Benoibates antiguaensis sp. n. differs from B. muscicola Baranek 1981 in shorter adanal and notogastral setae and in spiniform anal setae. Benoibates crinitus (Berlese 1910) is redescribed from the USA, based on the topotypes.
