Abstract

The achipteriid mites inhabiting in the Harşit Valley (Turkey) were evaluated based on samples collected in 2013 and 2014. The extraction of mites from materials collected from the investigation area was made by using a Berlese-Tullgren funnel extractor. Extracted mites were fixed and stored in 75% ethanol. The light and scanning electron microscopes were used to examine mites. The compound microscopic examinations of specimens were made in lactic acid, mounted in temporary cavity slides. Electron microscope photos of all determined taxa were taken. Total three species belonging to the family Achipteriidae Thor, 1929 were determined. Of these, Campachipteria (Triachipteria) patavina (Oudemans, 1914) and Campachipteria (Triachipteria) petiti (Travé, 1960) are new records for the Turkish fauna; Achipteria (Achipteria) nitens (Nicolet, 1855) has already been determined in Turkey. As a result, the morphological features of all determined taxa were reviewed on the basis of our samples. Furthermore, the identification key to the known genera of the family Achipteriidae from Turkey was arranged.

Özet

Harşit Vadisi’nde yaşayan achipteriid akarlar, 2013 ve 2014 yıllarında toplanan örnekler esas alınarak değerlendirildi. Araştırma alanından toplanan materyallerden akarların özütlenmesi Berlese-Tullgren huni özütleyicisi kullanılarak yapıldı. Özütlenen akarlar %75’lik etil alkolde tespit edildi ve depolandı. Akarların incelenmesinde ışık ve tarama elektron mikroskopları kullanıldı. Örneklerin mikroskopik incelenmesi çukur lamda ve geçici olarak hazırlanmış laktik asitli ortamda yapıldı. Belirlenen taksonların elektron mikroskobu fotoğrafları çekildi. Achipteriidae Thor, 1929 familyasına ait toplam üç tür tespit edildi. Bunlardan Campachipteria (Triachipteria) patavina (Oudemans, 1914) ve Campachipteria (Triachipteria) petiti (Travé, 1960) Türkiye faunası için yeni kayıt olarak, Achipteria (Achipteria) nitens (Nicolet, 1855) ise daha önce Türkiye’den bilinen takson olarak tespit edildi. Sonuç olarak; belirlenen taksonların morfolojik özellikleri, örneklerimize dayanarak gözden geçirildi. Ayrıca Türkiye’den Achipteriidae familyasının bilinen cinsleri için teşhis anahtarı düzenlendi.
