Type species. Laelaps claviger Berlese, 1883: 2. The most detailed diagnosis of Cosmolaelaps was provided by Evans & Till (1979) in a key to genera of Laelapidae. According to that key, species of this genus have the dorsal shield setae spatulate, cuneiform or scimitar-shaped; opisthonotal region of dorsal shield with one or two pairs of px (referred to as Zx) setae and a total of at least 16 pairs of setae; corniculi relatively short; female genital and anal shields not fused with other shields; palp apotele 2 -tined; genu IV typically with nine setae (pl 2 absent); chelicerae chelate-dentate and cheliceral digits of similar lengths; metasternal setae not inserted on sternal shield and spermatodactyl free.
