Specimens examined. Four females, Dereiya, Riyadh, 29 March 2011, 24°43' N, 46°37' E, alt. 674 m, on Orchid tree, Bauhinia variegata View in CoL L. ( Fabaceae View in CoL ) in a date palm orchard.

Remarks. Specimens of Proprioseiopsis messor were found on Bauhinia variegata close to the soil surface. Mites were found associated with thrips (Insecta). The Saudi specimens of P. messor agree with the data provided by Moraes et al. (2007) for two specimens collected in sub-Saharan Africa ( South Africa). This species is a new record for the Saudi mite fauna. It has previously been recorded from Algeria, Armenia, Australia, Azerbaijan, France, Gaza Strip, Georgia, Germany, Greece, Israel, Italy, Morocco, New Zealand, South Africa, Spain, Turkmenistan, Ukraine ( Moraes et al., 2004); Argentina ( Ruiz et al., 2005).
