Abstract
The genus Fenichelia (Oribatida, Micreremidae) is recorded from the Oriental Region for the first time. A new species – Fenichelia arborea sp. n. – is described, based on adults collected from tree branches of Dipterocarpus alatus in the Cat Tien National Park, Vietnam. The morphology of the gnathosoma and the identification of leg setae and solenidia are presented for the first time for a representative of this genus. A revised generic diagnosis of, an identification key to, as well as distribution and habitat data for the known species of Fenichelia are provided.
