Abstract
Androlaelaps ilhacardosoi, a new species of Laelapinae, is described from the pelage of a 3-lined marsupial, Monodelphis americana, collected on Ilha Cardoso, São Paulo State, Brazil. The description is based on the female, and the systematics of laelapine mites associated with neotropical marsupials is discussed.
