Abstract
The paper deals with the changes which are necessary in the taxonomy of water mites (Acari, Hydrachnidia) from Iran after revision of type material of certain water mites (Hydrachnidia) deposited in the collection of the Naturhistorisches Museum Basel and recent field work. The following synonyms are established: Family Sperchontidae: Sperchon amuzgari Bader & Sepasgozarian, 1979 = S. hispidus Koenike, 1895, S. bispinosus Bader & Sepasgosarian, 1982 = S. papillosus Thor, 1901, S. beneckei Bader & Sepasgosarian, 1982 = S. algeriensis Lundblad, 1942; Family Torrenticolidae: Torrenticola baueri Bader & Sepasgozarian, 1987 = T. barsica (Szalay, 1933); Monatractides persicus Pešić & Saboori, 2004 = M. stadleri (Walter, 1924); M. sepasi Bader, 1988 = M. lusitanicus (Lundblad, 1941). Furthermore, three species Atractides (Polymegapus) persicus Pešić & Asadi, Axonopsis (Hexaxonopsis) iranica Pešić & Asadi and A. (Hexaxonopsis) manoojani Pešić & Asadi are described as new to science; the first description of the deutonymph is given for Limnesia kochi Smit & Pešić, 2010, a species previously known only from Oman.
