Abstract
A new species of oribatid mite belonging to the genus Dyobelba is described from Korea. Dyobelba paucituberculata sp. nov. can be distinguished from the other species of Dyobelba by the complete absence of prodorsal enantiophyses B, D, epimeral and dorsosejugal enantiophyses E2, V and discidium, the presence of microtubercles at the bases of epimeral setae of 1, 2, 3-series and 4b, and the presence of two setae on trochanter IV. Some information on generic diagnosis and distribution of hitherto known species of Dyobelba are given.
