The first record of the genus Odiellus (opiliones, phalangiidae) in Turkey with some SEM studies on its morphology

The harvestmen species Odiellus lendli (Soerensen, 1894), with its genus Odiellus Roewer, 1923, was found in Anatolia. It represents a new record of Turkish harvestmen fauna. The characteristic features of this species are described and illustrated. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) studies on the dorsal integument, ventral habitus, chelicerae, pedipalpus, trident, the ocularium and legs of female specimens are also presented. Localities of the collecting sites are photographed and plotted on a map.
