916187D2FF93FFC01EAC79B8EABFE179.taxon	biology_ecology	Biology. The sampling area is characterized by forest and grass. A female, after being collected in the field (21 November 2011), laid eggs on the 22 nd day of being kept under laboratory conditions; no larvae were obtained because the eggs were contaminated with mold. Another female (holotype) collected from the same field at a different time (6 November 2012) laid eggs on the 18 th day of being kept under laboratory conditions (24 November). The eggs were spherical and clustered in 1 package. Although the eggs were also moldy, 10 days later (4 December) they turned into prelarvae; 6 larvae were obtained and transferred to alcohol (25 December).	en	Sevsay, Sevgi, Adil, Sezai (2015): First larval description of the genus Mirabilithrombium Gabryś, 1999 (Acari, Microtrombidiidae) from Turkey.
