First Record of Ochthebius (s. str) minabensis Ferro, 1983 (Coleoptera, Hydraenidae) from Turkey

Ochthebius (s. str) minabensis Ferro, 1983 is recorded from Turkey for the first time. Its identification according to our specimens and distribution around the world is reviewed. The Ochthebius (s. str) marinus group was revised by Jäch in 1992. It differs from other subgenera by the transverse pronotal foveae. They live in running and stagnant fresh water (Jäch, 1992). Twenty-four species were determined in the Palaearctic region. Seven of these have been determined in Turkey so far: Ochthebius (s. str) erzerumi Kuwert, 1887, O. (s. str) lividipennis Peyron, 1885, O. (s. str) meridionalis Rey, 1885, O. (s. str) peisonis Ganglbauer, 1901, O. (s. str) pusillus Stephens, 1835, O. (s. str) virens Jäch, 1992, and O. (s.str) viridis Peyron, 1885. Ochthebius (s. str) minabensis Ferro, 1983 is recorded from Turkey for the first time in this paper (Jäch, 1992; Hansen, 1998).
