Abstract: Ten Uropodina species were found in the soil, moss and litter materials collected in Angola and presently kept in the Soil Zoology Collections of the Hungarian Natural History Museum. A new genus (Afrotrachytes gen. n.) and ten species were identified in this rich material. One of them is a known species [Uropoda elegans (Marais et Theron, 1986)], but the other nine (Afrotrachytes seticaudatus sp. n., Leonardiella machadoi sp. n., Oplitis angolensis sp. n., Oplitis csuzdii sp. n., Cheloniuropoda cheloniforma sp. n., Uropoda cornuata sp. n., Uropoda afra sp. n., Rotundabaloghia mahunkaiana sp. n., Uroactinia angolensis sp. n.) are proved to be new to science. With 45 figures.
