A mainly neotropical genus (only one nearctic species) with 22 currently described species ( Tuzovskij & Gerecke 2020). These characteristic mites are large and soft, yet are typical inhabitants of running waters, generally found in fast flowing streams, but always in microhabitats protected from the current (pools, leaf litter, fine substrate below or behind large stones).
