Materials examined. 2 males and 1 tritonymph from flight feathers of the black-headed gull, Chroicocephalus ridibundus (Linnaeus, 1766) ( Charadriiformes : Laridae ), Samsun, Türkiye, 1 January 2022, coll. M. Öztürk.
Remarks. The genus Zachvatkinia currently includes eighteen species that are associated with birds belonging to the order Charadriiformes ( Dromadidae , Laridae , Stercorariidae and Sternidae ) and Procellariiformes ( Diomedeidae , Hydrobatidae , Oceanitidae , and Procellariidae ) ( Negm et al., 2013). In studies conducted to date, Zachvatkinia larica has been reported from over 20 species and subspecies of gulls worldwide (Asia, Europe, and America) ( Mironov, 1989; Han et al., 2016). In Türkiye, this mite species has been reported so far only from the yellow-legged gull, Larus michahellis Naumann, JF, 1840 (Eren et al., 2022).
