Formulas of leg setation and solenidia: I (1 - 4 - 3 - 4 - 15) [1 - 2 - 2], II (1 - 4 - 3 - 3 - 15) [1 - 1 - 2], III (2 - 3 - 1 - 2 - 15) [1 - 1 - 0], IV (1 - 2 - 2 - 2 - 11) [0 - 1 - 0]; homology of setae and solenidia indicated in Table 1. Famuli short, straight, blunt-ended. Solenidia ’ 1 on tibiae I very long, setiform; ω 1 on tarsi I of medium size, directed forward, ω 1 and ω 2 on tarsi II short, all thickened, blunt-ended; σ on genua III, ’ on tibiae II-IV, short, finger-like, often dilated in median part; other solenidia setiform, blunt-ended. Material examined — Holotype (male) and 23 paratypes (11 females and 12 males): Cuba, Cayo Santa Maria, 22 ° 66 ’ 21 ” N, 78 ° 96 ’ 88 ” W, leaf litter in forest (unknown date and collector, mites were previously deposited in the Museum of Zoology of Tyumen State University, Russia). Type deposition — The holotype (alcohol) is deposited in the collection of the Senckenberg Institute, Görlitz, Germany; 23 paratypes (alcohol) are in the collection of the Tyumen State University Museum of Zoology, Tyumen, Russia. Etymology — The specific name paravenezolanus refers to the morphological similarity of the new species to Carabodes venezolanus Subías and Arillo, 2004. Remarks — Carabodes paravenezolanus n. sp. is similar to Carabodes venezolanus Subías and Arillo, 2004 from Venezuela (see Subías and Arillo 2004) in having spoon-like interlamellar and notogastral setae and long bothridial setae. However, the new species differs from the latter by the convex notogaster (vs. posterior part flattened), bothridial setae with short, clear, flattened head (vs. elongate, slightly developed, barbed unilaterally), notogaster without tubercles (vs. with tubercles) and epimere I with three pairs of setae (vs. with one pair).	en	Ermilov, S.
