Records from Turkey: Erzurum Province ( Özkan 1980).

Remarks: Hygrobates ezoensis , a species known from Hokkaido ( Japan) and Sakhalin, was reported by Özkan (1982) based on female specimen (s) but never found again since then. Most probably this record refers to H. diversiporus Sokolow, a species described from the Caucasus. According to Matsumoto et al. (2005) the male genital plate seems to be the salient difference between H. ezoensis and H. diversiporus, as no clear diagnostic differences in the female or other characters can be found.
