Microtrombidiinae is a subfamily of mites within the family Microtrombidiidae, order Trombidiformes. Members are classified within the Parasitengona, a group characterized by complex life cycles involving parasitic larval stages and predatory or free-living post-larval stages. These mites are generally small to medium-sized with bright coloration, often red or orange. The subfamily was established by Thor in 1935 and contains multiple genera distributed across various regions.
