It has been found associated with Mus pahari Thomas ( Rodentia: Muridae). The description of this species is brief and both the description and illustrations lack many important details. Ma (2006) considered that Cosmolaelaps hefeiensis is a junior synonym of C. chianensis . C. hefeiensis was also described from China (Xu &amp; Liang, 1996). It has been found from moss (Xu &amp; Liang, 1996) and is now recorded in Republic of Korea for the first time, from soil. Our concept of the species is based on that of Xu &amp; Liang (1996) and our specimens agree very well with the description given by Xu &amp; Liang, 1996 for Cosmolaelaps hefeiensis . The species is easily recognised by the long and thick setae of the dorsal shield (most setae long enough to reach well past the base of next posterior seta), j1, z1 and Z5 simple and a without knob at their bases and fixed digit of chelicera of female with six teeth.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/9C301B0A4804FF88D097FA88FB94FE4D	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Most leg setae relatively thick, with variation indicated in parentheses above. Tarsi II–IV with 18 setae 3 3/2 3/2 3 + mv, md, all setae simple and needle-like; all pre-tarsi with a well-developed ambulacral stalk, a pair of claws and three rounded pulvillar lobes, projecting well beyond claws.</p><p>Insemination structures: Not seen, apparently unsclerotised.</p><p>Male. Unknown.</p><p>Etymology. The species is named in memory of Sejong the Great (15 May 1397 – 8 April 1450), the fourth king of the Joseon-dynasty in Republic of Korea, who encouraged creativity and advancements in scientific technology and under whom the Hangeul (Korean alphabet) was created.</p><p>Differential diagnosis. The new species is unique within Cosmolaelaps genus because of the distinctive shape of the post anal seta (thickened, barbed and apically hook shaped), which is inserted on a small tubercle. Additional diagnostic features are the thickened and abruptly tapering setae j1, Z5, Jv4, Jv5 and Zv5. Seta Z5 is also lightly barbed.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/9C301B0A4807FF89D097F8ABFF6EF824	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply. See Agosti, D., Egloff, W., 2009.

Before the present study, 11 species regarded to belong to Holostaspis had been reported until now (Berlese, 1904; Berlese, 1910; Wasmann, 1897; Willmann, 1956; Karg, 1979; Teng et. al., 1992; Evans &amp; Till, 1966; Bregetova, 1977). The following species are considered as members of Holostaspis and used for the detailed diagnosis of the genus:</p><p>Holostaspis isotricha Kolenati, 1858; Holostaspis montanus (Berlese, 1904) sensu Evans &amp; Till (1966) [described as Laelaps (Oolaelaps) montanus]; Holostaspis oophila Wasmann, 1897 sensu Evans &amp; Till (1966), Holostaspis parvulus (Berlese, 1904) [described as Laelaps (Oolaelaps) parvulus]; Holostaspis serpentis (Karg, 1979) [described as Hypoaspis (Holostaspis) serpentis]. Another six species may belong to Holostaspis, but were not considered in the generic diagnosis because they were not described in enough detail.</p><p>Diagnosis. Holodorsal shield often with paired Zx setae between J and Z setae, unpaired Jx setae also often present medially between J1 and J3; dorsal shield setae distally pointed, smooth or slightly serrated. Pre-sternal plates fused to sternal shield; sternal shield of female with a notch in middle anterior margin; concave in posterior margin, with three pairs of simple sternal setae, endopodal shields of coxae II and III fused with lateral margins of sternal shield. Anterior margin of sternal shield fused with endopodal shields. Metasternal setae st4 and associated pores iv3 always present, inserted on soft cuticle posterior to sternal shield. Genito-ventral shield slightly enlarged behind coxae IV, but long and extended posteriorly (about twice as long as wide), with one pair of setae (st5), no additional setae on edges of shield. Post-anal seta distinctly longer and thicker than para-anals. Anterior margin of epistome always smooth and curved or acuminate, palp tarsal claw two-tined; chelicera with small digits and reduced denticulation, corniculi short. Legs usually shorter than idiosoma.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/9C301B0A4800FF8FD097FBFCFC52F85A	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply. See Agosti, D., Egloff, W., 2009.

All pretarsi with a pair of claws and a long thin membranous ambulacral stalk.</p><p>Males &amp; immatures. Unknown.</p><p>Etymology. The name longicaudus (Latin longus, long and caudus, tail) refers to the very long post anal seta.</p><p>Differential diagnosis. Hypoaspis longicaudus has the following five unique character states for the genus: post anal seta very long, being almost 2.5 times longer than the para anal setae, S5 are the longest dorsal setae, gv3 is located on oval sclerotised plates close to the anal shield, and four long macrosetae on tarsus IV (ad2, pd2, pl2 and pl3) and some other leg setae are inserted on small tubercles (genu III pd2 and femur IV ad2, pd).</p><p>Notes. Hypoaspis sensu stricto is defined by the following character states: dorsal shield oval, without lateral incisions, bearing 35–40 pairs of setae including one or more pairs of Zx setae; some opisthonotal setae greatly elongated, especially Z4 (at least three times as long as J5); post-anal seta distinctly shorter than para-anals; hypostomal setae h3 distinctly longer than other hypostomal setae; greatly elongated macrosetae present on femora II and III and tarsus II with two subterminal blunt spines (setae al1 and pl1).</p><p>Our new species, Hypoaspis longicaudus sp. nov., has some character states that define Hypoaspis sensu lato and Hypoaspis sensu stricto . The characters that cause difficulties are: post-anal seta distinctly longer than paraanals (never seen before among species of Hypoaspis s. s.), S5 longest dorsal setae (versus Z4 longest dorsal setae among species of Hypoaspis s. s.) and Z4 not three times as long as J5 (Z4 about three times as long as J5 among species of Hypoaspis s. s.). In all other respects, H. longicaudus belongs to Hypoaspis sensu stricto . Therefore, if we do not use these characters states to define Hypoaspis s. s. then we have too small number of diagnostic character states of this genus. In the other hand at the present time, we do not think to create a new monotypic genus to accommodate the new species would help to clarify the taxonomic problems existing within the family Laelapidae . Therefore, we provisionally place this species in Hypoaspis sensu lato until a comprehensive revision of all these genera resolves its relationships.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/9C301B0A480FFF87D097FE2EFD00FBE0	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Hennessey &amp; Farrier (1988) and Farrier &amp; Hennessey (1993) considered that Laelaspis johnieae (Hunter &amp; Glover, 1968) is a junior synonym of Laelaspis mandibularis . Laelaspis johnieae was described from Florida, U.S.A., and it has been found from moist sand pine litter (Hunter &amp; Glover, 1968). Kontschán et. al. (2015) reported Laelaspis imitatus Reitblat from Republic of Korea on the basis of one specimen collected from pitfall traps baited with beer in Korean red pine forest. We have not had the opportunity to examine that specimen, but on the basis of some published illustrations of the specimen (Kontschán et. al., 2015), we believe this was a misidentified specimen of L. mandibularis . The species L. mandibularis is easily recognised by: the long pointed dorsal setae (reaching well past base of next posterior seta) with slightly swollen bases; sternal shield with a distinctly concave posterior margin; fixed digit of chelicera with four teeth (two large and two minute); and the pore-like structure between the setae Z1 and Zx large and clearly apparent.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/9C301B0A4808FF84D097FA78FDF3FD8A	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

(2016) reported Pseudoparasitus venetus (Berlese) from Yanggang-do, North Korea, on the basis of one specimen collected from moss. We have not had the opportunity to examine that specimen, but on the basis of the published illustration of the specimen (Kontschán et. al., 2016), we believe this was a misidentified specimen of Ololaelaps wangi because the peritrematal shields are obviously free and not fused to the genito-ventro-anal shield (in Ololaelaps venetus the peritrematal shield is obviously fused to the genito-ventralanal shield). Ololaelaps wangi can be easily distinguished from other members of the genus by the fusion of the metapodal and exopodal shields behind coxa IV, and the lateral fusion of these shields to the genito-ventro-anal shield; furthermore, the peritrematal shield is free posteriorly (i.e. not fused to the metapodal-exopodal shield). Here we provide morphological features of O. wangi to complement the original description of Bai et. al., 1996.</p><p>Dorsal shield (Fig. 32) with 38 pairs of setae 21 podonotal, 17 opisthonotal, including one pair of Zx setae between J and Z setae; setae almost of subequal length (23–27), except Z5 (16–18); all setae not reaching base of next posterior seta. Dorsal shield oval, length 515–535, width at level of s6, 416–421 (n= 5), wrapping around onto ventral idiosoma, forming a marginal strip (Fig. 32). Sternal shield (length 94–104) narrowest between coxae II (84–94), widest between coxae II–III (139–148), with slightly straight anterior and posterior margin, with three pairs of long, smooth pointed setae (st 1–3 39–43), sternal shield entirely reticulated. Genito-ventro-anal shield (Fig. 33) large (272–282 long × 213–223 wide), bearing six pairs of setae (32–34, except Zv2 and Jv 3 23–25) (including st5 and excluding three circum-anal setae); shield reticulated; metapodal and exopodal shields fused, also laterally fused to genito-ventro-anal shield (Fig. 33). Peritrematal shield free posteriorly, post-stigmatal section narrow, with three pairs of discernible pore-like structures (two lyrifissures ‘ ip ’, and one gland pore ‘ gp ’; see Fig. 33), peritreme extending from posterior margin of coxa III to near mid-level of coxa I. Epistome irregularly denticulate laterally, apical section with minute denticles (Fig. 34). Hypostomal groove narrow, with six rows of denticles each bearing two to four very small teeth and a smooth anterior transverse line (Fig. 35). Palp tarsal claw with three pointed tines of unequal length, proximal tine shortest. Palp trochantal setae simple, needle-like. Fixed digit of chelicera with three teeth (Fig. 36), pilus dentilis short and slender, dorsal seta short, semi-erect, movable digit with two large subterminal teeth, arthrodial membrane a rounded flap with a corona and cheliceral lyrifissure indistinct.</p><p>Legs. Legs II and III short (292–302, 262–272), I and IV longer (356–366, 366–376). Chaetotaxy normal for free-living Laelapidae: Leg I: coxa 0 0/1 0/1 0, trochanter 1 1/2 0/1 1, femur 2 3/2 2/2 2, genu 2 3/2 3/1 2, tibia 2 3/ 2 3/1 2. Leg II: coxa 0 0/1 0/1 0, trochanter 1 0/1 0/2 1, femur 2 3/1 2/2 1 (Fig. 37), genu 2 3/1 2/1 2 (ad2 and pd2 inserted on small tubercles, Fig 37), tibia 2 2/1 2/1 2 (Fig. 37). Leg III: coxa 0 0/1 0/1 0, trochanter 1 0/1 0/2 1, femur 1 2/0 1/1 1, genu 2 2/1 2/1 1, tibia 2 1/1 2/1 1. Leg IV: 0 0/1 0/0 0, trochanter 1 0/1 0/2 1, femur 1 2/1 1/0 1 (Fig. 38), genu 2 2/1 3/0 1 (Fig. 38), tibia 2 1/1 3/1 2 (Fig. 38); all setae fine and needle-like. Tarsi II-IV with 18 setae 3 3/2 3/2 3 + mv, md. All pre-tarsi with a pair of claws and a long thin membranous ambulacrum.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/9C301B0A480AFF9AD097FDF6FA9EFE80	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
