Abstract
A new melicharid mite of the genus Orolaelaps De Leon, 1963, O. guanahacabibensis sp.n., is described based on female specimens collected from coastal soil litter in Cuba. The genus Orolaelaps is reported for the first time from Cuba. A dichotomous key for the identification of females of the world species classified in the genus Orolaelaps is provided.
