description: Key to known subgenera and species of Yoshiobodes
1. Five to six pairs of genital setae present..................... 2 (subgenus Yoshiobodes (Dongnaiobodes) subgen. nov.)
- Four pairs of genital setae present........................................................................ 3
2. Humeral regions of notogaster with large concavity; sensilli narrowly spindle-form; body size: 364–431 × 221–249........................................................... Yoshiobodes (Dongnaiobodes) biconcavus sp. nov. (Vietnam)
- Humeral regions of notogaster without large concavity; sensilli with clear developed clavate head; body size: 315–348 × 166–199............................................ Yoshiobodes (Dongnaiobodes) hexasetosus sp. nov. (Vietnam)

- Prodorsum without additional setae; notogaster surface tuberculate............................................. 5
5. Fifteen pairs of notogastral setae present.................................................................. 6
- Fourteen pairs of notogastral setae present................................................................. 8
6. Centrodorsal notogastral setae dilated distally, truncate; body size: 306–342 × 183–209.................................................................................. Yoshiobodes (Yoshiobodes) humidus Mahunka, 1996 (Borneo)
- Centrodorsal notogastral setae not truncate, not dilated distally................................................. 7
7. Notogastral setae phylliform, with narrowly pointed tip; body size: 299 × 152.................................................................................. Yoshiobodes (Yoshiobodes) papuanus (Balogh, 1970 b) 1 (New Guinea)
- Notogastral setae phylliform, with wide tip; body size: 294–352 × 156–196.......................................................... Yoshiobodes (Yoshiobodes) irmayi Balogh & Mahunka, 1969 2 (Neotropical region and southern U.S. A)

- Sensilli narrow spindle-form, with strong spines unilaterally; aggenital setae simple................................ 9
9. Rostral setae very thick, dilated in basal and medial part; centrodorsal setae of notogaster phylliform, long, c 1 reaching inser- tions of da; body size: 272–321 × 178–203................ Yoshiobodes (Yoshiobodes) arcuatus Mahunka, 1987 (Borneo)
- Rostral setae setiform; centrodorsal setae of notogaster short, plumose, c 1 clearly not reaching insertions of da .......... 10
1. See also Mahunka 1987.
2. See also Mahunka 1987. Mahunka (1987) described Yoshiobodes (Yoshiobodes) aokii Mahunka, 1987 from Malaysia. However, it is very similar morphologically to Yoshiobodes (Yoshiobodes) irmayi Balogh & Mahunka, 1969. Hence, specimens of both these species should be studied and compared additionally for final conclusion. 3. See also Berlese 1913.
10. Centrodorsal notogastral setae very small, clearly shorter than interlamellar setae; adanal setae simple; body size: 363 × 196............................................... Yoshiobodes (Yoshiobodes) plumosulus (Balogh, 1970 a) (Sri Lanka)
- Centrodorsal notogastral setae of medium size, similar in length to interlamellar setae; adanal setae weakly plumose; body size: 332–353 × 191–201.......................... Yoshiobodes (Yoshiobodes) plumosus (Balogh, 1970 a) (Sri Lanka)
11. Notogastral setae c 1, c 2 narrowly phylliform, c 3 phylliform; four pairs of centrodorsal notogastral setae larger than others; body size: 252–382 × 139–203.............................. Yoshiobodes (Berndobodes) hauseri Mahunka, 1996 (Borneo)
- Notogastral setae c 1, c 2, c 3 simple, thin; centrodorsal notogastral setae not larger than others; body size: 312–376 × 176–238.................................................... Yoshiobodes (Berndobodes) spiculifer Mahunka, 1986 (Borneo)
