A new melicharid mite belonging to the genus Orthadenella Athias-Henriot (1973), namely Orthadenella multipilisaccula sp. nov. , is described. It was collected from forest soil in northern Iran. By having different shapes of spermathecal apparatus and tectum, and different sizes of legs and some dorsal idiosomal setae, it can be distinguished from Orthadenella lawrencei (Evans, 1958), a closely related species. For a thorough comparison, voucher specimens of O. lawrencei were examined by material loaned from Finnish Museum of Natural History, Helsinki and Museum für Naturkunde, Berlin.
