Abstract

A new species of Xenotarsonemus Beer, 1954 (Acari: Heterostigmatina: Tarsonemidae), Xenotarsonemus krishnai sp. nov. Mondal & Ganguly is described based on the specimens collected from the fern species Arthromeris wallichiana naturally grown in the Himalayan forests of Darjeeling district in the state of West Bengal, India.
