Protoribates shvanderovi sp. nov. is morphologically most similar to P. gracilis (Aoki, 1982) from Japan and Vietnam in having long bothridial setae with heads strongly dilated unilaterally and pointed distally, long adanal setae ad 1 and ad 2 and monodactylous legs. However, the new species differs from the latter by the larger body size (448 – 464 × 249 – 265 vs. 340 × 180), localization of lamellar setae on the lamellar ends (vs. on prodorsum, medially to lamellar ends), relative lengths of lamellar, interlamellar and bothridial setae, viz., le longer than ro, in longer than bs (vs. le shorter than ro, in shorter than bs), and short dorsophragmata (vs. long).	en	Ermilov, Sergey G., Starý, Josef (2017): New Protoribates (Acari, Oribatida, Haplozetidae) from Vietnam.
