Abstract
The comparative analysis of the external morphology of tritonymphs in parasitic mites belonging to the tribes Elephantulobiini and Protomyobiini (Acariformes: Myobiidae) was carried out based on representatives of the genera Elephantulobia Fain, 1972 (Elephantulobiini); Limnogalobia Fain & Lukoschus, 1976 (Protomyobiini: Afromyobiina); Blarinobia Jameson, 1955, Eutalpacarus Jameson, 1949, Gymnomyobia Fain & Lukoschus, 1976, Placomyobia Jameson, 1970 (Protomyobiini: Amorphacarina), and Nectogalobia Fain & Lukoschus, 1976 (Protomyobiini: Protomyobiina). A key to genera of the tribes Elephantulobiini and Protomyobiini based on tritonymphs is given.
