In this paper, Benoinyssus najae Fain, 1958 from the family Eupodidae is redescribed on the basis of a paratype from Africa. The paratype is housed in the Musée Royal de l'Afrique Centrale, Tervuren, Belgium. A comprehensive account of the morphology of the body, i.e. idiosoma, gnathosoma, legs with setae and solenidia, is given here for the first time. This is the first redescription since B. najae was originally described.
