sp. nov. is described and illustrated using line drawings, transmitted light and SEM imaging. It is characterized by an extraordinary richness of notogastral setae (ca. 166 pairs) that has been previously unseen among phthiracaroid mites. The species originates from the material collected from the litter of primary forest in the Peruvian Andes. The genus is well represented in the Neotropical Region. Many species of ptyctimous mites have been found in Peru, representing both widespread and endemic biogeographic elements. Among a total of 37 species, 20 from Peru have been described for the first time. Currently, the ptyctimous fauna consists of 12 endemite, 11 neotropical, 4 semicosmopolitan and 9 pantropical biogeographic elements.
新物种通过线条图、透射光和扫描电子显微镜成像进行描述和展示。其特征是背板刚毛异常丰富(约166对),这在甲螨类螨中是前所未见的。该物种源自从秘鲁安第斯山脉原始森林落叶层收集的材料。该属在新热带地区有很好的代表。在秘鲁发现了许多绒螨物种,代表了广泛分布和特有的生物地理成分。在总共37个物种中,有20个是首次从秘鲁描述的。目前,绒螨动物群由12个特有、11个新热带、4个半世界性和9个泛热带生物地理成分组成。
