This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Miko, L., Weigmann, G. (1996): Notes on the genus Liebstadia Oudemans, 1906 (Acarina, Oribatida) in Central Europe. Acta Musei Nationalis Pragae, Series B, Historia Naturalis 52: 73-100, URL: http://unknownAbstract. The genus Liebstadia OUDEMANS, 1906 is redefined on the basis of published data and presented descriptions and redescriptions of several Central-European species. Liebstadia longior (BERLESE, 1908) and L. pannonica (WILLMANN, 1951) are redescribed using typical/topotypical material. Protoribates badensis SELLNICK, 1928 is regarded as new junior synonym of L. longior, and Protoribates variabilis RAJSKI, 1958 (= Liebstadia variabilis) is synonymized with L. pannonica (WILLMANN, 1951). Liebstadia willmanni sp. nov. from Austria and Slovakia is described.The position of the genus Liebstadia and Status of some other species of the genus (L. nova comb. nov., L. austriaca comb. nov., L. similis serratomarginata comb. nov., stat. nov., L. humerata, L. gratiosa comb. nov.) are discussed. A key of the Central-European species of the genus Liebstadia is included along with a table of typical characters.Keywords:Oribatida, Scheloribatidae, Liebstadia, L. longior, L. willmanni, L. pannonica, L. similis, taxonomy
