Abstract
A key is given to the five described extant species of Mymaromella. Two new species, Mymaromella pala Huber & Gibson, sp. n. and M. palella Huber & Gibson, sp. n. (Mymarommatoidea: Mymarommatidae), are described as the first species of the family from North America. Psocoptera (Insecta) are proposed as the probable hosts of Mymarommatidae, based on circumstantial evidence obtained from their morphology, phenology, biogeography, habitats, and paleontology.
