Three new species of eriophyoid mites from South China are described and illustrated: Dichopelmus homalii sp. nov. and Agenuseta tianliaomus sp. nov. from Homalium cochinchinense (Lour.) Druce (Salicaceae). Levonga melicopeae sp. nov. from Melicope pteleifolia (Champ. ex Benth.) T. G. Hartley (Rutaceae). All of them are vagrants on lower leaf surface and cause no apparent symptom to their host plants.
