Canine demodicosis is a common non contagious parasitic skin infestation caused by different species of Demodex mites. Three species of Demodex namely, Demodex canis, D. injai and D. cornei were identified based on morphology and micromery in skin scrapings of dogs with demodicosis in India, while D. injai being reported for the first time in India. A total of 328 adult demodectic mites were measured by ocular micrometer. Mean total body length of D. cornei, D. canis and D. injai was 149.87 +1.42, 202.46 + 2.79 and 284.42 ± 1.54 /mi, respectively. Mean length of prosoma, opisthosoma, total body and ratio of prosoma to opisthosoma and ratio of opisthosoma to total body between D. canis (n=150), D.injai (n = 102), and D. cornei (n=76) differed significantly (_< 0.01).
