| abstract | A new feather mite genus Dendrocolaptobius gen. n. belonging to the Nycteridocaulus generic group (Proctophyllodidae: Proctophyllodinae) is described. The genus includes two species associated with woodcreepers (Furnariidae: Dendrocopaptinae): Dendrocolaptobius cuneiformis (Mironov, 2017) comb. n. previously described from Sittasomus griseicapillus (Vieillot) in Costa Rica; and D. lepidocolapti sp. n. described herein from Lepidocolaptes souleyetii (Lafresnaye) in Panama. The new genus Dendrocolaptobius is clearly distinguished from the other genera of the Nycteridocaulus group in having an inverted genital arch and enlarged bow-shaped basal sclerite in males and the copulatory opening situated dorsally on the lobar region in females. |
