Abstract
Two new species of oribatid mites from the genus Galumnella (Oribatida, Galumnellidae) are described from the Philippines. Galumnella processa sp. n. differs from G. junichiaokii Ermilov, Corpuz-Raros et Shimano 2014 by the triangular ledge on the anterior margin of the ventral plate and the smooth bothridial setae. Galumnella quezonensis sp. n. differs from G. cellularis Balogh et Mahunka 1967 by the larger body size and the presence of bothridial setae with very long and thin apices, and of longitudinal ridges in the anogenital region.
