Abstract
Prozercon plumosus Călugăr, 2004, a species of mesostigmatic mite (Acari), is reported from Slovakia for the first time. Our new record, which originates from western Slovakia, extends the known distribution of P. plumosus. We include a key to Prozercon Sellnick, 1943 species that are similar to P. plumosus.
