Abstract

The fauna of oribatid mites of the Bureinsky Nature Reserve exhibits substantial diversity with the Oppioidea and Ceratozetoidea superfamilies dominating the oribatid species of the reserve. Rare mites, i.e. Asperemaeus sp. and Ctenobelba sp. were recorded here before, while the genus Protoripoda was found for the first time both on the territory of the reserve and on Russian territory in general. Protoripoda (Protoripoda) bureensis sp. nov. is a new species discovered here. These are elongated mites of a medium size (0.345 × 0.145 mm), with a rounded rostrum and bothridia completely covered by the anterior margin of the notogaster; their sensilli are clavate, with 10 pairs of notogastral setae, 4 pairs of sacculum, and 4 pairs of genital setae, and their anal and adanal setae are flagellate. P. (P.) bureensis sp. nov. is distinguished from the similar species P. (P.) flagellata, by its smaller size, and also by short aggenital and coxo-sternal region setae and shorter setae ad3, ad2 and an2.
