abstractThe acarofauna associated with Carabidae (Coleoptera) in Belgium is studied. About 1000 mites were collected from 19 sites from 155 carabid beetles belonging to 21 species and 8 genera. The mites belonged to 12 species, 8 genera, 8 families and 3 orders. All mites were found beneath the elytra of the beetles except the hypopi of the Histiostomatidae which were found attached to the body. A new species of Antennoseius, A. calathi n. sp. (Ascidae), is described from Calathus micropterus and Pterostichus diligens. More than half of the mites of our collections were deutonymphs belonging to 2 species of the genus Halodarcia Karg (Halolaelapidae) i.e. H. incideta Karg, 1969 and Halodarcia sp.
