Summary:Amblydromella Muma is revised and the following subgenera are described: Amblydromella Muma, Aphanoseia Wainstein, Lindquistoseia n. subgen., and Prasadoseia n. subgen. The monotypic genus Anthoseius De Leon is similar to Amblydromella, but can be separated on the basis of the shape and length of the dorsal setae, short, thick legs, width of peritreme, modified cheliceral denticles, a ventrianal shield that is often fragmented, presence of z3 in protonymph (absent in protonymph of Amblydromella), host plant, and geographical distribution
