This species was described as an Amblyseius View in CoL by Chant and Baker (1965), reported in this genus in the Phytoseiidae Database View in CoL of Demite et al. (2017). We propose in this paper a new combination. This is the first record of this species for French Caribbean Islands. The description of Chant and Baker (1965) is now old, poor, with very minute drawings, difficult to use and there are no redescription with new drawings for that species. We re-describe here Transeius terminatus (Chant & McMurtry) new. comb. with new measurements, new details on the shape of some characters and new drawings. Species of the genus Transeius View in CoL are considered as type III (generalist predators) by McMurtry et al. (2013) but the biology of this species remains totally unknown.
