Three new genera, Natalimyobia n. gen., Furipterobia n. gen., and Mizopodobia n. gen., are erected for the myobiid mites associated with the chiropteran families Natalidae, Furipteridae, and Myzopodidae, respectively. The definitions for the genera Nycterimyobia, Thyromyobia, and Mystacobia, previously known only from one sex, are refined with the description of the opposite sex. Two different types of myobiid genera, one being represented by larger elongate forms and the other by smaller rounded forms, often share hosts within a chiropteran family. A larger elongate myobiid genus is associated exclusively with each chiropteran family. Phylogenetic relationships among 16 larger-sized myobiid genera, including the 3 new ones, are deduced based primarily on the structure of female genitalia and secondarily on the formation of legs and chaetotaxy of idiosoma and legs. These relationships are regarded as being parallel to those of the chiropteran host families.
分别为与纳塔尔科、烟蝠科和盘翼蝠科翼手目动物相关的蝠螨科螨类建立了三个新属，即纳塔尔蝠螨属（Natalimyobia n. gen.）、烟蝠螨属（Furipterobia n. gen.）和盘翼蝠螨属（Mizopodobia n. gen.）。通过对异性的描述，完善了此前仅知其一性别的夜蝠螨属（Nycterimyobia）、麝蝠螨属（Thyromyobia）和须蝠螨属（Mystacobia）的定义。两种不同类型的蝠螨科属，一种以较大的细长形态为代表，另一种以较小的圆形形态为代表，常常在一个翼手目科内共享宿主。一个较大的细长蝠螨科属仅与每个翼手目科相关联。主要基于雌螨生殖器结构，并辅助以足的形态以及躯体和足的毛序，推断了包括3个新属在内的16个较大型蝠螨科属之间的系统发育关系。这些关系被认为与翼手目宿主科的关系平行对应。
