Feather mites (Acariformes, Astigmata) detected on some birds in Türkiye: new records and new host-parasite associations
Gökhan Eren
Feather mite specimens (Astigmata: Analgoidea and Pterolichoidea) used in this study were collected from 29 dead bird individuals of various orders in Artvin, Erzurum, Rize, and Sakarya (Türkiye) during 2023–2024. As a result of ectoparasitic examination, 22 feather mite species were detected. Of the mite species detected, fourteen species (Glaucalges attenuatus, Kramerella bubonis, Montesauria merulae, M. cylindrica, Pandalura cirrata, Picalgoides diaphanoxus, Proctophyllodes ateri, P. glandarinus, P. hipposideros, P. locustellae, P. microstylifer, P. picae, P. pinnatus, and Scutulanyssus ottuki) are new records for the ectoparasitic fauna in Türkiye. Additionally, new host-parasite associations were revealed for Gabucinia delibata, Hieracolichus ramosus, and Montesauria merulae feather mite species.
