A checklist of the water mites of Turkey (Acari: Hydrachnidia) with description of two new species Author Erman, Orhan Author Pešić, Vladimir Author Esen, Yunus Author Özkan, Muhlis text Zootaxa 2010 2624 1 48 journal article 10.5281/zenodo.198186 05f1d9c0-cb7c-49ad-a0b1-8dbee74a9095 1175-5326 198186 Hygrobates (Rivobates) ezoensis Uchida, 1934 Records from Turkey : Erzurum Province ( Özkan 1980 ). Remarks: Hygrobates ezoensis , a species known from Hokkaido ( Japan ) and Sakhalin, was reported by Özkan (1982) based on female specimen (s) but never found again since then. Most probably this record refers to H. diversiporus Sokolow, a species described from the Caucasus. According to Matsumoto et al . (2005) the male genital plate seems to be the salient difference between H. ezoensis and H. diversiporus , as no clear diagnostic differences in the female or other characters can be found.
