摘要

Mites were collected from leaf litter and the fur of a wild rodent (Niviventer fulvescens) in Guizhou Province of China, and described as Podocinum guizhouense sp. nov. (Podocinidae). This is the first report of Podocinidae from a wild rodent host, but this ecological association may be accidental. A key to the females of Podocinum from China is provided.
