Özet

A new caligonellid mite, Molothrognathus kamili is described and illustrated from Turkey. Turkish Molothrognathus species has been reviewed and Molothrognathus artvinensis Koc & Ayyildiz 1997 syn. nov. has been given as a junior synonym of Molothrognathus venusta (Khaustov & Kuznetzov, 1997) comb. nov. Two caligonellid species, Molothrognathus crucis Summers & Schlinger, 1955 and Neognathus spectabilis (Summers & Schlinger, 1955), are newly recorded from Turkey and re-described. Neognathus terrestris (Summers & Schlinger, 1955) and Caligonella humilis (Koch, 1838) are recorded from new localities. A key to the known genera of Caligonellidae from Turkey is included.
