5F6187CBFFAA1E1AFF3AFC89FBAEFCAA.taxon	discussion	Discussion To date, three species are known belonging to the subgenus Brentalebertia, namely Lebertia minutipalpis K. Viets, 1920 from Central Europe, L. hygropetrica Gerecke, 2008 from the Southern Alps and L. hupalupu Gerecke, 2009 from the Canary Islands. Lebertia anatolica differs from all other species of the subgenus in having two ventrodistal setae on P- 3. This plesiomorphic character state was previously known only from the subgenus Eolebertia and the genus Paralebertia. Members of both taxa are characterized by, and differ from the Lebertia species of the remaining subgenera in, higher number of setae on P- 2, - 3 and - 4. Furthermore, the characteristic (ventrally bent tips of Cx-I) demonstrate that L. anatolica has to be placed in Brentalebertia. Lebertia anatolica is similar to L. hupalupu in the combination of the acetabula without central constrictions and Cx-I / II nearly equal in length (Cx-I / II mL ratio in L. hupalupu: 0.94). That species differs in an unsclerotized excretory pore, P- 3 with only five setae and IV-L- 6 with three stout ventral setae.	en	Esen, Yunus, Dilkaraoğlu, Sibel, Erman, Orhan, Gerecke, Reinhard (2013): Two new water mite species of the genus Lebertia (Acari: Hydrachnidia: Lebertiidae) from Turkey.

5F6187CBFFA01E15FE5BFE37FE01FF38.taxon	discussion	Discussion Lebertia subtilis has been recorded several times since the first description, but all later records remained doubtful owing to unclear diagnostic characters and the lack of deposited material (Gerecke 2009). The specimens collected from Bingöl Mountains agree in all details with the type series as described by Gerecke (2009). The most important distinctive feature, a high density of medial setae on the male genital flaps (resulting in double-row arrangement in posterior part) was observed in all 12 male specimens. As this character state is unknown in any other Lebertia species and the type series consisted only of a single male and a single female, Gerecke proposed that this particular morphology could be the effect of individual malformation. Furthermore, he stated that the absence of swimming setae should be verified because of the damaged type series. On the base of this record, all the aforementioned diagnostic characters can be verified.	en	Esen, Yunus, Dilkaraoğlu, Sibel, Erman, Orhan, Gerecke, Reinhard (2013): Two new water mite species of the genus Lebertia (Acari: Hydrachnidia: Lebertiidae) from Turkey.

Habitat The first description was based on material from a lake, while the Turkish population derives from a high altitude rheocrene rich in gravel substrata and moss vegetation, and with strong exposure to sunlight. As absence of swimming setae is a feature often found in spring-dwelling species, it is well possible that also the type locality was a groundwater-influenced habitat.	en	Esen, Yunus, Dilkaraoğlu, Sibel, Erman, Orhan, Gerecke, Reinhard (2013): Two new water mite species of the genus Lebertia (Acari: Hydrachnidia: Lebertiidae) from Turkey.
