Abstract

A new species of Schalleria (Oribatida, Microzetidae)—S. (Paraschalleria) engelbrechti sp. nov.—is described from leaf litter of mixed forest in Cuba; it is similar to S. (P.) forceps in presence of bacilliform basal prodorsal apophysis, but differs by smaller body size, the morphology of the first lobed structure, lamella, bothridial seta, epimeral setae 3c, 4c, distal part of prodorsal apophysis, and the length and morphology of interlamellar seta. A new generic diagnosis of Schalleria is presented. An identification key to known species of the genus is provided.
