摘要
We describe a new monotypic genus in the mite family Eviphididae, Platyphis Joharchi & Halliday gen. nov., to accommodate a new species, P. montreuili Joharchi & Halliday sp. nov., from specimens collected on a ra re earth-boring dung beetle species, Enoplotrupes bieti (Oberthur) (Coleoptera: Geotrupidae) in Nepal. The n ew genus differs from all other genera of Eviphididae by having an expansive anal shield. Other distinctive features of the new genus include the moderately narrow deutosternal groove with five rows of denticles, and the internal malae with thick and moderately long fimbriae.
