CHECKLISTS OF WATER MITES (ACARI: HYDRACHNIDIA AND HALACARIDAE) OF THE BALTIC STATES. – Latvijas Entomologs , 48: 52-75. Abstract: In this paper we give an overview of the water mites currently known from the Baltic countries. For each species all literature data are given and additionally many new data are provided. This work resulted in up-to-date checklists for Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania. Species numbers reported from Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania are 161, 162 and 137 respectively. It is expected that this number will rise considerably when more research is conducted. Key words: Baltic, checklist, Hydrachnidia, water mites. Introduction Võrtsjärv. A number of publications, i.e. Riikoja et al. (1973), Ristkok (1994), Timm et al.

He listed nine species for the countries, including, the results of new fauna of Estonia. A second paper dealing with collections by the authors between 2005 and Estonian water mites was published by Von zur 2009. Mühlen & Schneider (1920). Ozolin (1925, 1930) was the first author to report on the water Methods mites of Latvia. He made an extensive inventory of the water mites of Latvia, examining 48 The taxonomy follows recent publications lakes, 42 streams and 59 ponds, ditches and of Davids et al.

For every 133 species of water mites for the fauna of species all previous references are given, as well Latvia. The first author publishing a paper on as new records. Numbers for each species are the water mites of Lithuania was Čeraška given as male/female/deutonymph, or (1932). During the years 1927-1931 he collected adult/deutonymph. A complete list of locations water mites in Lithuania from some 75 is given in Annex 1, and the abbreviations given locations, including lakes, streams, pools, for each record can be found here. ditches and bogs.
