Eleven species of myocoptid mites (Acariformes: Myocoptidae) are recorded from African rodents. Among them, three species are described as new for science: Myocoptes lophuromys sp. nov. from Lophuromys woosnami Thomas, 1906 (Rodentia: Muridae) from Uganda, Trichoecius hylomyscus sp. nov. from Hylomyscus anselli Bishop, 1979 (Rodentia: Muridae) from Tanzania (type host and locality) and Hylomyscus stella (Thomas, 1911) from Gabon, and Trichoecius faini sp. nov. from Hylomyscus arcimontanus Carlton and Stanley, 2005 from Tanzania. Gliricoptes graphiuri Fain, 1970 syn. nov. is synonymized with Gliricoptes vulcanorum Fain, 1970, and the female of Trichoecius angolensis Fain, 1972 is described for the first time. New hosts and localities are provided for four species: Myocoptes grammomys Fain, 1970 from Grammomys dryas (L., 1758) (Rodentia: Muridae) from Burundi and Uganda, Myocoptes spinulatus Fain, 1970 from Dendromus mystacalis (Heuglin, 1863) (Rodentia: Muridae) from Tanzania, Crinicastor congolensis Fain, 1970 from Grammomys macmillani (Wroughton, 1907) (Rodentia: Muridae) from Tanzania, and Trichoecius otomys Fain, 1970 from Otomys typus (Heuglin, 1877) (Rodentia: Muridae) from Uganda.
