Abstract
A new species of oribatid mites of the genus Christovizetes (Acari: Oribatida: Microzetidae), Christovizetes longisaetosus sp. nov. is described based on adult specimens collected from caves in Yunnan Province, Southwestern China. This genus is reported from China for the first time. The new species could be distinguished from other three known species of the genus by the following combination of characteristics: (1) distinctly longer notogastral setae lm, lp, h1-3, (2) notogastral setae lp located anterior to lyrifissure im, (3) each lamellar cusp with four teeth, among which two inner teeth much longer and thinner than two outers, (4) aggenital setae smooth. A key to the four species of this genus is given.
期刊介绍：
Acarologia is a free open-access journal. Please help us by submitting manuscripts in accordance with following instructions.
All manuscripts which do not conform to the instructions will be returned to authors without the benefit of review.
Acarologia publishes the results of original research on all aspects of Acarology.
The journal policy is that taxonomic descriptions should include several species within a same genus/family, when possible.
The editors reserve the right to refuse manuscripts when authors intentionally divide individual species descriptions of the same genus/family into distinct publications.
Single species descriptions should be clearly justified based on their scientific interest.
