Discussion
Remark. Most records in Caucasian literature are under synonym Rhysotritia ardua. As finding locations for A. ardua, Musera is indicated in the checklist of Karppinen et al. (1987) with reference to Krivolutsky & Tarba (1971) and Niedbała (1983 a), however, neither of these publications contains records on A. ardua. For Ritsa Reserve, Shtanchaeva & Subías (2010) report the presence of Acrotritia hyeroglyphica (Berlese, 1916). Subías and Arillo (2000) and Mahunka (1991) accept it as a valid species; however, it is regarded as a junior synonym of A. ardua by Bernini et al. (1995) and Niedbała (1993, 2002, 2004). Based on the revision of oribatid mites from Berlese’s collection presented by Niedbała (1993), we accept A. hyeroglyphica as a junior synonym of A. ardua.
