Two new species of eriophyoid mites (Acari: Trombidiformes: Eriophyoidea) were found on Zelkova carpinifolia (Ulmaceae) in Golestan Province, Iran. They are described as Tegolophus zelkofoliae sp. nov. and Rectalox dorsoenodis sp. nov. Both new species were vagrants on the leaf underside and no damage was observed on the infested plants. It is the first record of a species within the genus Rectalox from Iran.
