Abstract

A list of species of the water mite genus Lebertia Neuman, 1880 known from Turkey is provided, based on bibliographical data and results from recent field work, mainly in the Southwestern part of the country. We describe one new species, Lebertia martini sp. n. and report new 28 locality records from 6 provinces for the three previously known species. © Pinar Gülle, Yunus Ömer Boyaci.
