abstract

  • Iberochyzeria fornielesi Mayoral et al., 2018 was reported from larvae collected ectoparasitic on Calliptamus barbarus and Oedipoda caerulescens (Orthoptera: Acrididae) from Spain. In this study, we collected ectoparasitic larvae of I. fornielesi from Calliptamus sp., unidentified Acrididae (Orthoptera) and off host via pitfall traps. This species is reported for the first time in Türkiye and the second time of the genus in the world. The tarsi of I. fornielesi are illustrated and the tarsal setal formula is corrected. Leptus darvishi Saboori et al., 2018 and Charletonia damavandica Karimi Iravanlou et al., 2002 are reported for the first time from Türkiye. Metric and some meristic data of Turkish specimens of I. fornielesi, Leptus rosellae Haitlinger, 1999, L. darvishi, C. damavandica and Neotrombicula vulgaris Schluger, 1955 are presented. An updated key to gagzoi species subgroup of phalangii species group (Leptus) is presented.
