Abstract

The present study is based on oribatid mite material (Acari, Oribatida) collected from the Cameroonian Korup National Park in 2016. A list of identified taxa, including 51 species from 33 genera and 19 families, is presented; of these, 28 species, 16 genera and 6 families are recorded in Cameroon for the first time. Two new species belonging to the genera Lasiobelba and Haplozetes are described: Lasiobelba camerunica sp. nov. differs from Lasiobelba decui (Vasiliu & Ivan, 1995) by the presence of eight pairs of notogastral setae (c represented by alveoli, h3 and their alveoli absent), spindle-form bothridial setae with distinct thin apex and longer notogastral setae la, lm and lp; Haplozetes paracancellatus sp. nov. differs from Haplozetes cancellatus Beck, 1964 by the presence of long interlamellar setae and foveolate anogenital region.
