title: A new species of Paracarophenax (Acari: Heterostigmata: Acarophenacidae) associated with Triplax scutellaris (Coleoptera: Erotylidae) from European Russia
abstract: A new species, Paracarophenax triplaxophilus n. sp. (Acari: Acarophenacidae), is described based on phoretic females collected under the elytra of a mycophagous beetle Triplax scutellaris Charpentier, 1825 (Coleoptera: Erotylidae) in European Russia. An updated key to species of Paracarophenax is provided. Homologies of some gnathosomal structures of acarophenacid mites are re-evaluated.
