Abstract
Enami, Y. and J. Aoki, 1993. A new genus and species of oribatid mite from Japan(Acari: Damaeidae). J. Acarol. Soc. Jpn., 2(1): 15-18.
A new genus and species of damaeid mite, Acanthobelba tortuosa sp. nov. is described from Japan. This genus is distinguishable from the other genera of Damaeidae mainly by the lanceolate sensilli, absence of humeral angulations and the dorsosejugal suture becoming indistinct between a pair of spinae adnatae which are well developed and strongly curved as fish hooks.
