Three new species of the genus Tylenchorhynchus Cobb, 1913 from Canada are named and described. Tylenchorhynchus irregularis n. sp. differs from all closely related species in the irregular width of the cuticular annulation, especially in the posterior half of the body. T. longus n. sp. is similar to T. superbus Allen, 1955 but differs from this species in relative tail length and annulation of the tail terminus. T. laminatus n. sp. resembles T. leptus Allen, 1955 but differs in the details of the lip region, spear length, and laminated annules.

Three new species of oribatid mites of the genus Pergalumna (Oribatida, Galumnidae) are described from litter and soil in the Korup National Park (Cameroon). Pergalumna jenoi sp. nov. differs from P. margaritata Mahunka, 1989 and P. pseudomargaritata Mahunka, 1994 by the presence of simple dorsosejugal suture, dentate anterior margin of the ventral plate, distinct reticulate pattern on the pteromorphs and dense stria on the genital plates, the localization of setal alveoli la posterior to porose areas Aa, and the absence of a median pore. Pergalumna tuberclesejugalis sp. nov. differs from P. margaritata and P. pseudomargaritata by the larger body size, the localization of porose areas Aa closer to lm than la, and setal alveoli h3 close and lateral to A2, the presence of sejugal porose areas, and the absence of a median pore and stria on the genital plates. Pergalumna grebennikovi sp. nov. differs from P. bifissurata Hammer, 1972 by the larger body size, the presence of smooth bothridial setae, well-developed interlamellar setae, reticulate anterior margin of pteromorphs, comparatively long prodorsal median ridge and a median pore, and the localization of setal alveoli la and porose areas Aa. An identification key to the known species of the genus Pergalumna from the Ethiopian region is presented.

AbstractTwo new genera and three new species of feather mites (Astigmata, Pterolichoidea, Analgoidea) are described from two closely related species of cockatoos, Cacatua galerita (type host) and C. sulphurea (Psittaciformes, Cacatuidae): Astrolabelichus caudatus gen. nov., sp. nov. (Pterolichidae), Psittophagus lacunosus sp. nov. (Pterolichidae), and Cacatualges microdiscus gen. nov., sp. nov. (Xolalgidae). The presence of the same set of mite species on these two species of parrots points to a very close affinity of Cacatua sulphurea and C. galerita and gives additional support for the recent hypothesis of the conspecificity of these birds.

Three new species of oribatid mites of the genus Neoribates (Oribatida, Parakalummidae) are described based on adult specimens from the Tam Dao National Park of Northern Vietnam. Neoribates pseudojacoti sp. nov. differs from Neoribates jacoti Balogh & Mahunka, 1967 by the presence of clavate bothridial setae, median ridge of rostrum and adanal setae of medium size, and the localization of lamellar setae on prodorsum laterally to lamellar ends. Neoribates striatissimus sp. nov. differs from Neoribates similis Fujikawa, 2007 by the striate body surface, minute rostral setae and five pairs of genital setae. Neoribates protrusus sp. nov. differs from Neoribates rotundus Aoki, 1982 by the presence of barbed bothridial setae, rudimentary parts of translamellar line and very long interlamellar setae with attenuate tips.

Three new species of Ugandan Kibale forest are described, figured and compared with closely related species: Scymnus (Pullus) auritoides sp. n., S. (Pullus) fumosipennis sp. n. and S. (Pullus) siphonofissus sp. n. S. (Pullus) nigropectus Mader is redescribed, based on new material. New synonyms: S. mundus Mader is a younger synonym of S. nigrosellatus Mader and S. couturieri Chazeau is a synonym of S. majeri Fürsch.

Three new species of oribatid mites of the family Galumnidae, Galumna acutirostrum sp. nov., Galumna levisensilla sp. nov., Neogalumna seniczaki sp. nov., are proposed and described. All three are from sandy soil in a dipterocarp forest of Cat Tien National Park (southern Vietnam). Diagnostic keys to the Vietnamese species of Galumna (Galumna) and known species of Neogalumna are presented.

Rubia urceolata, a new species endemic to Shennongjia National Park, Hubei Province (central China), is herein described and illustrated. The new species has sub-orbicular to ovate leaves and mericarp berry, which might be confused with the closely related species R. ovatifolia. However, R. urceolata can be distinguished from R. ovatifolia by its urceolate corolla, longer corolla tube (1.3–2 mm) and flowers with purplish red lobes. Morphological comparisons with R. ovatifolia are discussed.

Three new species of oribatid mites (Oribatida) of the family Oppiidae collected from swamp moss near Laguna Parrillar National Park in Chile (Patagonia) are described. Kokoppia lagunaensis sp. nov. differs from Kokoppia inclinata, K. rafalskii and K. pectinata by the following morphological traits: body size; structure of costulae; absence of transcostula; presence of interbothridial tubercles; morphology of bothridial setae; number of solenidia on leg tarsi II. Setoppia parrillarensis sp. nov. differs from Setoppia strinovichi by the following morphological traits: body size; length of interlamellar setae; localization of notogastral setae la and adanal lyrifissures; absence of costulae. Graptoppia (Stenoppia) magallanesensis sp. nov. differs from Graptoppia (Stenoppia) italica by the following morphological traits: absence of transcostula; localization of notogastral setae la; presence of interbothridial tubercles. The species Oppia inclinata Hammer, 1962 is transferred to the genus Kokoppia and now is given as Kokoppia inclinata (Hammer, 1962) comb. nov.
