As a result, we found two species of phytoseiids associated with unknown eriophyoid mite species on two different endemic plants in Kaz Da & gbreve;lar & imath;. Neoseiulus vasoides (Karg) and Typhlodromus (Typhlodromus) ernesti Ragusa & Swirski were collected from Sideritis trojana Bornm. (Lamiaceae) and Abies nordmanniana subsp. equi-trojani (Asch. & Sint. ex Boiss.) Coode & Cullen (Pinaceae) at high elevations of 1726 meters and 1350 meters, respectively. The new species records are complementarily described and illustrated based on Turkish specimens, including detailed descriptions of leg chaetotaxy. Important diagnostic characters of the new species records are provided to further improve diagnosis and to avoid any confusion regarding the species status of the Turkish specimens.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccesssystematicspredatory mitesKaz Da & gbreve;lar & imath;new recordsmorphologyleg chaetotaxyArticle65113914810.24349/x9dz-hn6uQ3WOS:0014398921000092-s2.0-86000300806Q2
