Abstract

This work deals with 13 species of oribatid mites from different regions of Korea. Two new species, Humerobates aokii sp. nov. and Humerobates ulleungdoensis sp. nov. are proposed, and 11 known species, Punctoribates ezoensis (Fujikawa, 1982), Tectoribates proximus (Berlese, 1910), Protoribates tohokuensis Fujikawa, 2003, Protoribates capucinus Berlese, 1908, Peloribates pilosus Hammer, 1952, Scheloribates fimbriatus Thor, 1930, Neoribates aurantiacus (Oudemans, 1914), Zygoribatula glabra (Michael, 1890), Pergalumna myrmophila (Berlese, 1914), Trichogalumna boninensis Hagino, Bayartogtokh & Shimano, 2017, and Trichogalumna ohkuboi Hagino, Bayartogtokh & Shimano, 2017 are newly reported for the fauna of Korea. Supplementary descriptions and illustrations of each species along with their distributional data are provided.
