Distribution — Ukraine ( Trach and Seeman,

2014).

Remarks — The genus Euroschizogynium is monotypic and known only from the type series from Odessa region of Ukraine; mites were also found on S. terricola ( Trach and Seeman, 2014) . Mites were located on the thorax and abdomen of the beetles. The biology of the Schizogyniidae is generally unknown, but some species are associated with passalid, bark and carabid beetles ( Trägårdh, 1950; Kinn 1966; Hirschmann 1972; Trach and Seeman, 2014).
