Abstract
Ocesobates (Oribatida, Chamobatidae) is recorded in the Oriental region for the first time; a new species of this genus is described from soil, ferns, lichens and gramineous weeds of Taiwan. Ocesobates ziweiensis sp. nov. differs from other Ocesobates-species by the presence of translamella (versus translamella absent). A revised generic diagnosis and an identification key to known species of Ocesobates are presented. Ocesobates bregetovae Shaldybina, 1974 is proposed as a junior subjective synonym of Ocesobates boedvarssoni (Sellnick, 1974). Ocesobates galaicus Subías & Shtanchaeva, 2012 is moved to the genus Globozetes Sellnick, 1928.
