Abstract
Seventy-two females, one male, seven deutonymphs and two protonymphs specimens of Ledermuelleriopsis aminiae Nazari & Khanjani, 2017 were collected from Pulumur Valley, Turkey. Descriptions and illustrations of the nymph stages on the collected specimens of the species were given and the adult specimens were briefly described. This is the first record of L. aminiae from Turkey, and the first description of nymphal stages of the species. In addition, abnormalities in the number of intercoxal and aggenital setae in the female and male specimens of L. aminiae were mentioned here.
