Abstract
The present paper is mainly concerned with the records and descriptions of new species of parasitic acari obtained in Ceylon and sent to me during 1947 by Mr Gordon B. Thompson, of whose collection they form a part. The study of the specimens of the tropical rat mite, Echinolaelaps echidninus (Berl.), represented in this material led me to re-examine both the literature and the specimens of this species contained in my own collection, and I have included in the present paper the results of this investigation and have established various forms of the species which this necessitates besides showing the probable relationships existing between them.
