Tydeoidea presented by 23 species while Brachytydeus comprises eight species, gathered in orchards and shrub trees in Turkey. Brachytydeus armindae (Momen & Lundqvist 2005) (Acari: Tydeidae), found in association with Thuja orientalis L. (Cupressaceae) trees and stored wheat, is reported as a new species of tydeid fauna of Turkey.
