Four new species of the feather mite subfamily Pterodectinae (Proctophyllodidae) are described from passerine birds examined in Senegal: Dolichodectes gymnoris sp. nov. from the Russet-browed Bush-sparrow Gymnoris dentata (Sundevall, 1850) (Passeridae), Montesauria plocei sp. nov. from the Village Weaver Ploceus cucullatus (Muller, 1776) (Ploceidae), M. zosteropis sp. nov. from the African Yellow White-eye Zosterops senegalensis Bonaparte, 1850 (Zosteropidae), and Proterothrix terpsiphone sp. nov. from the African Paradise-flycatcher Terpsiphone viridis (Muller, 1776) (Monarchidae). Brief notes on systematics and host associations of the pterodectine genera Dolichodectes Park et Atyeo, 1971, Montesauria Oudemans, 1905, and Proterothrix Gaud, 1968 are also given.
