Résumé :
|
The pseudoscorpion genus Acanthocreagris Mahnert, 1974 is primarily distributed in the Mediterranean region, with its range extending eastwarad to Iran and Turkmenistan. Four species of the genus are known from Turkey, all described in the 1960s and 1970s. To support modern taxonomic work on the Turkish pseudoscorpion fauna, the earlier descriptions were revised to include previously omitted characters and more comprehensive figures. Here, redescriptions of three Turkish representatives of the genus Acanthocreagris – A. anatolica (Beier, 1963), A. ressli (Beier, 1965), and A. osellai (Beier, 1973) – are provided, along with drawings and a distribution map of the Turkish representatives of the genus. The male syntype of A. anatolica from Ankara is hereby designated as the lectotype, thereby fixing Ankara as the type locality of the species.
