Abstract :This study is the first DNA barcoding study with Hydrachna globosa , Hydryphantes dispar , Georgella helvetica and Hydrodroma despiciens which are very common species in the lakes (Acari, Hydrachnidia). Water mites samples used in the study were collected from Lake Karamik (Afyonkarahisar Turkey) between April to October 2015. Molecular analysis of the samples were carried out in the laboratory environment. The gDNA from each sample were isolated and the 28S rDNA gene region amplified. It was observed that the molecular analysis results obtained were in agreement with the classical systematic classification results for each species used in the study.Keywords : Water Mites, DNA Barcoding, 28S rDNA, Karamık Lake, Afyonkarahisar, Turkey
