title: Haemolaelaps Berlese removed from synonomy with Androlaelaps Berlese (Acari: Laelapidae) .
abstract: Comparison of species of Androlaelaps with all members of the Haemolaelaps marsupialis group show these to be two consistently distinct groups. Haemolaelaps is removed from synonomy with Androlaelaps and rediagnosed. A close relationship between Peramelaelaps Womersley and Haemolaelaps is proposed.
