In this paper two new species of Acarina are described, the first a new species of Pterygosoma from a West African agamid lizard and the second a new species of Schöngastiella from two West African rodents. In addition, several new records of Acarina are given, most of these from the Ethiopian region of Africa. The writer wishes to extend his thanks to all those who have contributed material, and in particular Mr W. Crewe and Dr R. Taufflieb.
