by
R. H. L. DISNEY
Abstract - A collection of 2914 Phoridae from caves in Trinidad represents fourteen species in six genera. Three are exotic species introduced by man. Of the eleven presumed native species probably seven are of regular occurrence in caves. Six species new to science are described. A key to the species is provided. Mites of the families Macrochelidae and Uropodidae were found attached to two phorid species.
