This study is aimed to determine the distributions, habitats, and endemism rates of Hygrobatidae species of Turkey and three neighboring countries. Similarity calculations were made between Turkey and three neighboring countries using the Bray-Curtis index. As a result, it has been determined that Turkey has a high of similarity with Greece and Bulgaria and a low index of similarity with Iran. Additionally, a new record, Atractides (Tympanomegapus) lacustris (Lundblad, 1925), has been given for the fauna of Turkey. The number of Hygrobatidae species has been reached 55 with A. lacustris and Hygrobatidae species have been recorded from 21 provinces in Turkey.

Türkiye ve Üç Komşu Ülkenin Hygrobatidae Koch, 1842 (Hydrachnidia: Acari) Türlerinin Faunal Çeşitliliği ve Dağılımı

Öz

Bu çalışmada, Türkiye ve üç komşu ülkenin Hygrobatidae türlerinin dağılımı, habitat tercihleri ve endemizm oranlarının belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Türkiye ve üç komşu ülke arasındaki benzerlik hesapları Bray-Curtis indeksi kullanılarak yapılmıştır. Sonuç olarak Türkiye’nin Yunanistan ve Bulgaristan ile Hygrobatidae tür benzerliğinin yüksek, İran ile düşük olduğu belirlenmiştir. Ek olarak, Türkiye faunası için yeni kayıt Atractides (Tympanomegapus) lacustris (Lundblad, 1925) verilmiştir. Türkiye’de 21 ilden kaydedilmiş olan Hygrobatidae türlerinin sayısı A. lacustris ile 55’e ulaşmıştır.
