Süne (Eurygaster integriceps) üzerinde parazit olan Leptus (L.) esmailii (Acari: Erythraeidae) akar türünün Türkiye’den ilk kaydı

İran’dan süne, Eurygaster integriceps Puton (Hemiptera: Scutelleridae), üzerinde ektoparazit olarak kayıt edilen Leptus (L.) esmailii Saboori ve Ostovan larvaları, yine aynı tür konukçu üzerinden ülkemizden toplanmıştır. Larvaların kısaca tanımı yapılarak daha önce İran’dan verilen örnekler ile karşılaştırılmış ve önemli kısımlarının ışık mikroskobunda alınan görüntüleri verilmiştir. Bu çalışma, Leptus cinsinin ülkemizden ikinci kaydıdır.

First record of the mite species of Leptus (L.) esmailii (Acari: Erythraeidae) parasitising on sunn pest (Eurygaster integriceps) from Turkey

The larvae of Leptus (L.) esmailii Saboori and Ostovan given as ectoparasitic on sunn pest, Eurygaster integriceps Puton (Hemiptera: Scutelleridae) from Iran were collected from the same species host in Turkey. The larvae were briefly described and compared with the specimens which are previously given from Iran, also light microscope images of important parts of the specimens were presented here. This study is the second record of the genus Leptus from Turkey.
