Abstract
All described Uropodina species (351) are listed from the last 30 years with the original occurrences. On continent level, the most of the described species are from Asia (121), from Central and South America (87) and from Africa (79). On country level, the most species were described from Ecuador (21), Vietnam (21), Kenya (18), Thailand (16), Costa Rica (15), China (14), Slovakia (14), Malaysia (14), Madagascar (14), Brazil (13), Indonesia (11), India (10) and Peru (10) and nine or fewer species were described from the other countries in the last 30 years. Trichouropoda pocsi Kontschán, 2004 (Comoro Islands) is a junior homonymous name of Trichouropoda pocsi Hirschmann & Wisniewski, 1987. The new replacement name for the T. pocsi Kontschán, 2004 is Trichouropoda pocstamasi nom. nov.
Introduction
The members of the suborder Uropodina are small or medium-sized (300–1,200 μm), yellow or reddish-brown mites. They are the members of the soil mesofauna and inhabit soil, leaf litter, moss, lichens, and tree bark. These mites can be found in all regions of the world, and nowadays, more than 2,000 species have been described (Wiśniewski and Hirschmann, 1993).
Werner Hirschmann, the noted Uropodina taxonomist, started his new journal “Acarologie” in 1964, and he and his co-worker published more than 500 papers in 40 volumes. The last volume was published 30 years ago, in 1993, and the last, the 40th issue contained all Uropodina species from all over the world from the first mention of these mites. In the last 30 years, many new Uropodina species have been discovered and named, and now in the 30th anniversary of the last summarizing paper, I collected all published references containing descriptions of the new species. The present paper contains 351 listed species.
Material and methods
All described species with the original names are listed in the present paper. Nomenclature acts are presented only if these species were moved from one genus to the other in this period.

Discussion
In the last 30 years, 351 new Uropodina species were discovered and described by more than 20 authors. The most species (286) were described by J. Kontschán (Hungary) from all regions of the Earth together with his co-workers (Josef Starý (Czech Republic) with 31 species, Sergey G. Ermilov (Russia) with 24 species, Balázs Kiss (Hungary) with ten species and Stefan Friedrich (Germany) with six species and with others couple of new species). Jerzy Błoszyk (Poland) described 14 species from Poland, Australia, and Italy together with Bruce Halliday (Australia) with nine species and several other Polish researchers with one or two described species. Peter Mašán (Slovakia), during his intensive faunistic research of the Slovakian Uropodina, described 14 new species. A Chinese researcher, L-M. Ma discovered 11 new Uropodina species from China. Richard J. Elzinga (USA), during his study of the mites of the South- and Central American army ant, described eight new species. Durmus Ali Bal (Turkey) described six new species from his country, often together with Muhlis Özkan (four new species). Four new species were described in this period by the doyens of the Uropodina research, Werner Hirschmann (Canada) and Jerzy Wiśniewski (Poland), and four species were described by the noted parasitologist Alex Fain (Belgium). Several other researchers described one-three new species in this period; the results are available in the list of the described species.
These 351 species were described in 172 journal papers, the most preferred journal was the Zootaxa, where 31 papers were published about the new Uropodina species. Systematic and Applied Acarology was also preferred with 19 papers. One of the most preferred journals was the Opuscula Zoologica (Budapest) as well, where 14 papers contained descriptions of new Uropodina species. Descriptions of new species were published with 9–9 papers in the case of the International Journal of Acarology and Acta Zoologica Academiae Scientiarum Hungaricae, and 8–8 in the case of journals Acarologia and Zookeys.
The most productive years were 2010 when 37 new species were discovered, and 2011 with 26, and 2012 with 25 new species. More than 10 new species were described in the years 1999, 2003, 2005, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2020 and 2023.
In the last 30 years, 121 species were discovered in Asia, 87 in Central and South America, 79 in Africa, 59 in Europe, 15 from Australia (together with New Caledonia and New Zealand), and 11 in North America (Canada and USA). Most species were described from Ecuador (21), Vietnam (21), Kenya (18), Thailand (16), Costa Rica (15), China (14), Slovakia (14), Malaysia (14), Madagascar (14), Brazil (13), Indonesia (11), India (10) and Peru (10) and nine or fewer species were described from the other countries.
The last 30 years were very active in Uropodina research, but many countries are absolutely neglected, we do not have any or we only have very limited information about these mites in several countries from the tropical regions. Wiśniewski and Hirschmann's (1993) catalogue contains 1935 species. With the new contribution to the knowledge of the Uropodina mites, we know more than 2,200 Uropodina species and 15% of the known species were described and named in the last 30 years. This research can not be finished, the researchers need to study many scarcely investigated countries, where more than 300 new species are expected to be discovered in the future.
