Abstract
Some halacarid specimens from the North Sea and the NEWELL's collection, usually known under the name Anomalohalacarus anomalus (TROUESSART, 1894), are re-examined. The material from the North Sea is identified as A. anomalus, and some taxonomic characters of A. anomalus are emended based on this material. NEWELL's specimens should be referred to A. tenellus BARTSCH, 1979 and A. tenuis BARTSCH, 1979, on the basis of the leg and palpal chaetotaxies.
