A New Genus and Three New Species of the Mite Family Arctacaridae (Parasitiformes, Mesostigmata) from North America
are described and the diagnosis of the family Arctacaridae is refined. The majority of records of species of the ge-nus Proarctacarus is associated with mountain coniferous forests. The regular arrangement of setae (transverse rows) and sigillae on the large soft opisthosoma suggests the presence of...
