Abstract
The genus Cerattoma Mahunka, 1972 (Acari: Pygmephoridae) is redefined. Cerattoma ursulae (Krczal, 1959) is redescribed, based on phoretic females collected under the elytra of a Crypticus sp. (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae) darkling beetle in European Russia. An updated key to the genera of the Pygmephoridae family is provided.
