Belongs within: Gamasina.

The Phytoseioidea are a diverse group of mites, best known as predators but also including parasitic, fungivorous and pollen-feeding species. The Otopheidomenidae, characterised by modified chelicerae with the fixed digit reduced and the movable digit slender and pointed, are parasitic on insects. Podocinidae have the first pair of legs greatly elongated, without terminal claws and with one or two whip-like apical setae, and are found in humus and litter habitats in tropical and warm temperate regions. The Blattisociidae are an ecologically diverse group of relatively hairy mites previously often classified in the distantly related family Ascidae. The best studied family within the group, however, is the Phytoseiidae, many members of which are known to be free-living predators of agricultural pests though some are fungivores of pollen feeders (Lindquist et al. 2009). Phytoseiids are divided between three subfamilies with the Amblyseiinae being characterised by the absence of setae z3, s6 and JV3 (Chant & McMurtry 2003).
Characters (from Lindquist et al. 2009): Female and male dorsal shield usually entire, occasionally divided. Female sternal shield usually with three pairs of setae (metasternal setae on separate platelets or free in soft integument) but rarely with two or fewer pairs of setae; epigynal shield usually with one pair of setae, or these on soft integument flanking shield, shield free posteriorly from ventrianal or, rarely, anal shield. Male with sternitigenital shield usually separate from ventrianal shield or with line of fusion evident when connected; ventrianal shield with anterolateral margins not incised or eroded and with posterolateral margins free from dorsal shield; ventrianal shield rarely divided into ventral and anal shield. Femur I usually with 11-12 setae, including three ventral setae and 4-5 dorsal setae; tibia I with 2-3 ventral setae, 4-6 dorsal setae and 1-2 anterolateral setae; tibia III with 7-8 setae (1 1/1, 2/1 1 or 2 1/1, 2/1 1), rarely nine when pl2 present. Palptarsal claw usually two-tined (three-tined in Podocinidae). Female podospermous; sperm induction pores on sternal region between bases of coxae III-IV; each major sperm duct leading to often sclerotised spermathecal calyx, with associated vesicle, atrium and minor duct. Male with genital aperture at anterior margin of sternal region, with or without spurs or modified spinelike setae on legs II and sometimes III-IV; spermatodactyl on movable cheliceral digit simple and fingerlike to variously modified, elongated, or elaborated in shape. Larva with or without pygidial shield; protonymphal pygidial shield with 5-8 pairs of setae, setae S4-S5 usually on shield; dorsal shield of deutonymph entire, with lateral incisions or divided if divided in adult.
