All the stages of Hypoaspis ( Pneumolaelaps ) hyatti Evans & Till are described and figured. The mites seem to feed on Tyrophagus laevis (Dujardin, 1849). The leg chaetotaxy and the development of the dorsal chaetotaxy are summarized. Egg lengths and female body lengths of several gamasids are compared.
