Abstract

The present study is based on ptyctimous mite materials collected from 19 forest localities in Ethiopia during 2012–2020. A list of identified taxa, including 21 species from nine genera and four families is provided; of these, ten species are recorded for the first time in the Ethiopian fauna, among which one species is recorded for the first time in the Afrotropical region. One new species of Euphthiracaridae—Euphthiracarus (Pocsia) debreberhanensis Niedbała sp. nov.—is described. Morphological additions to descriptions of Acrotritia rustica, Plonaphacarus machadoi, P. ecphylus, and Notophthiracarus subitus are presented.
