Abstract
The family Halarachnidae and the genus Pneumonyssus are redefined. A key to the 8 known spp. of Pneumonyssus is given with descriptions of P. bakeri, and of the previously undescribed male of P. caninum The interrelationships of Pneumonyssus sp. are considered with redescriptions of spp. Evidence is presented linking the mammal-infesting Pneumonyssus sp. with the snake-infesting Entonyssidae.Keywords
