摘要

Typhlodromus (Anthoseius) sabelisi n. sp., a member of the rhenanus species group, is described from the State of Rio Grande do Sul, in southern Brazil, based on specimens collected from house dust removed from a curtain using a vacuum cleaner. So far, only Typhlodromus (Anthoseius) ornatus (Denmark & Muma, 1973) and T (A.) transvaalensis (Nesbitt, 1951) have been reported from the State of Rio Grande do Sul. A key to the species of Typhlodromus (Anthoseius) De Leon reported in Brazil is provided.
