Type species Okiseius subtropicus Ehara, 1967a: 77 . Okiseius ( Kampimodromellus ) Kolodochka & Denmark, 1996: 223 . Type species: Amblyseius ( Kampimodromus ) maritimus Ehara, 1967b: 224 . Following the classification of Chant & McMurty (2007) Okiseius jainticus sp. nov. and Okiseius unisetatus sp. nov. belong to tribe Kampimodromini Kolodochka, 1998 , and subtribe Kampimodromina Kolodochka, 1998 , without a distinct notch or incision in the lateral margin of the dorsal shield at the level of seta s4 . Chant & McMurtry (2003) proposed two species groups based on the point of insertion of seta R 1 : the subtropicus species group with this seta inserted on dorsal shield with a distinct notch at the lateral margin of dorsal shield below R 1 of females and the maritimus species group with seta R 1 inserted on lateral integument of females without notch at the lateral margin. The new species O . jainticus sp. nov. is grouped under maritimus species group while O. unisetatus sp. nov . is grouped under subtropicus species group.
