| abstract | A new genus is proposed to accommodate an unusual new species, Gonatothrix carinata, of the mite family Macrochelidae phoretic on the scarab beeetle Phanaeus pyrois. The new genus is distinguished by strong opisthosomatic hypertrichy, a strongly narrowed opisthonotal component of the dorsal shield, singular sternal shield ornamentation, and the presence of eight setae on genu III. |
