Abstract
The genus Lebertia of the water-mites is easily recognized by the character of the epimera. It belongs to a small group of genera, the subfamily Lebertiinae, characterized by the union of the four pairs of epimera into a single group, with their more or less complete fusion. This forms a shield which covers a large part of the ventral surface of the body.
