Type species. Oribates peloptoides Berlese, 1888: 215 , fig. 3.

Diagnosis. Adults small to large in size (240­620 μm in length). Rostrum rounded. Notogaster with 14 pairs of setae. Four pairs of sacculli. Pteromorphae movable, fully hinged. Lamellae well developed. The true translamella is absent or lineated, never completely crossing space between lamellar setae. Five pairs of genital setae. One or three pairs of aggenital setae. Legs usually tridactylous, but rarely monodactylous ( Bayartogtokh, 2000).

Distribution. Palaearctic, Nearctic, Oriental regions, Neotropical, Australian (as described in Bayartogtokh, 2000).

Remarks. There was three species recorded in Korea, such as Peloribates acutus Aoki, 1961 , P. longisetosus Willmann, 1930 , and P. rangiroaensis asiaticus Aoki and Nakatamari, 1974 .

lar setae. Sensillus (ss) club­shaped and short stalk, with a strongly swollen head. Prodorsal surface with distinct foveolae.

Notogaster: 14 pairs of notogastral setae very long, reaching to or extending beyond the insertions of next row setae, blunt at tip and strongly barbed; all the notogastral setae, even the longest and setae h 1, are shorter than their mutual distances; integument of notogaster and pteromorphae shows the foveolae, notogaster, pteromorpha finely striated transversely.

Ventral side: anal and genital plates with large, round
