Annotation:
The paper discusses Central Asian mites of the genus Belba. Two species described by E.M.Bulanova-Zakhvatkina [1962] (В. minuta, В. tenuisetosa) are redescribed on the basis of an investigation of the adult stage. The existence of B.meridionalis B.-Z., 1962 remains questionable.Keywords:
