03A1B33FFFCE225EEE99846192EBF4D3.taxon	discussion	Remarks — Bipassalozetes intermedius closely resembles B. rugosus (Sitnikova, 1975) and differs only by the notogaster center and edges not having different shaped and length reticulations (Sitnikova, 1982). The examined specimens differed only in the relatively short bar-shaped (only weakly polygonal shaped) structures at the edges of the notogaster surface. Bipassalozetes intermedius was reported from both wet and dry meadows around a lake (Mihelčič 1954).	en	YaşaK, Merve, Ozman-SullivanK, Sebahat K., SullivanK, Gregory T., BaşK, Hüseyin, BaranK, Şule (2025): A new species and three new records of poronotic oribatid mites associated with water buffalo dung in the Kizilirmak Delta in Türkiye.
