Andocaeculus Coineau, 1974

Type species Microcaeculus brundini Franz, 1962

Revised diagnosis. The original diagnosis of Coineau (1974a: 279) stated that mites of the genus Andocaeculus corresponds to caeculids with trichobothria present on all leg tarsi, with claws unequally sized, and having dorsal plates without intensive neotrichy. To these characters, we could add: gnathosoma not visible from above; only one seta Po (short or long); palpal femur with at most two setae; anal plate with two setae; femora divided into telofemur and basifemur on all legs; ω solenidion dorsally located, ε antiaxial and hidden, famulus κ” regressive; eupathidia of the typical ‘baguette de tambour’ of most of the genera of the family ( Coineau 1974a) and (st) absent on tarsus II.
