Its biology, damage and infestation ratio were studied in Sankamiş. (Kars), Turkey, during 1996 and 1997.P. apparella has one generation a year. The developmental stages of the pest are described briefly. P.apparella hibernates in the adult stage. At the beginning of June, the adults appear. Females deposit their eggs on both leaf surfaces, generally one by one, 7–10 days after emerging. The early instars (sap-feeding larvae) start to mine mostly from the underside of leaves. Each mine has one larva, and each leaf may have up to 26 mines. The last instar (tissue-feeding larva) begins to pupate in the mine after mid August. The adults emerge from mid September to the beginning of October, and move to the trunks of old pine trees, where they hibernate in bark crevices. The infestation level may be as high as 90% of the leaves on some trees.

(Coleoptera: Cerambycidae), were studied in the Aras Valley (Kars and Erzurum provinces), Turkey, during 2006-2007. Five parasitoid species, Paraperithous gnathaulax (Thomson), Dolichomitus populneus (Ratzeburg), Dolichomitus tuberculatus (Geoffroy) (Hymenoptera: Ichneumonidae), Ipbiaulax impostor (Scopoli) (Hymenoptera: Braconidae), and Billaea irrorata (Meig.) (Diptera: Tachinidae), were reared from the over-wintering larvae living in the galls of S. populnea. Dolichomitus populneus was the most numerous of the parasitoids and accounted for 55% of all parasitoids reared. Ipbiaulax impostor and B. irrorata were reared from S. populnea for the first time in Turkey. Additionally, B. irrorata is a new record for the Turkish fauna.
The present contribution is based upon the ichneumonids collected from two different localities (... more The present contribution is based upon the ichneumonids collected from two different localities (Bayburt and Erzurum) of Turkey (Anatolia), in 1999 and 2003. A total of six species have been recorded in the subfamilies, Banchinae and Ichneumoninae. One genus (Aoplus) and five species were new records for the Turkish fauna. The Ichneumonidae (Hymenoptera), is a widespread and extremely large family, with an estimated 60 000 extant species in 35 genera worldwide (Townes, 1969). The Ichneumoninae has a worldwide distribution and is the second largest subfamily of Ichneumonidae with 373 genera and about 1700 species in Palaearctic Region. The species in this subfamily are koinobiont or idiobiont endoparasitoids of Lepidoptera (Rasnitsyn & Siitan, 1981). The Banchinae is another subfamily of the family Ichneumonidae with about 1,500 species world- wide. The tribes Banchini, Glyptini and Lissonotini are distributed worldwide (Townes & Townes, 1978). All Bachinae species are koinobiont end...

Its feeding habits and nature of damage were studied during the summers of 2013-2015. The adults appeared in the beginning of May and remained active throughout the summer until the middle of September. The adults showed nocturnal habit and fed at night, during the day time they remained on the ground or at the bottom of the trees. It was found to be an edge feeder; damaged leaves became irregularly shaped and left behind the veins of the leaves in some cases. The adults were also found damaging cherry leaves. Presumably, the adults over wintered in the dried plant refuge in the orchard.

A total of eight species have been recorded in the subfamilies Acaenitinae, Campopleginae, Collyriinae, Cremastinae, and Ichneumoninae of the family Ichneumonidae. Three species and the two genera, Ctenichneumon Thomson and Procinetus Foerster are new for the Turkish fauna.

Host plants of some of the species are recorded, in related to this, Micromerus erivanicus (Maran) is an important pest of flowers of Vicia spp. and Onobrychis sativa; Mylabris quadripunctata (F.) is also pest on soft grain of wheat. The triungulins of Meloe violaceus Mansham are found in the hives of honey bees in some villages of Oltu (Erzurum).

Examination of the material and an overview of the literature sources allowed us to reach the conclusion that the genus Ceratina Latreille (Ceratinini) includes 27 species and two subspecies, while only one species of the genus Exoneuridia Cockerell (Allodapini) is found in Turkey. With a current 10 Xylocopa species previously recorded, a total of 38 species and two subspecies in the subfamily Xylocopinae occur in the country. Each species has a different distribution range; some Ceratina species are abundantly or moderately distributed, but certain species are very rare: C. christellae has been known from Antalya and Hakkâri, C. hakkarica from Hakkâri, C. neocallosa from Nevşehir, C. rasmonti from Ağrı and Van, C. warnckei from Hakkâri, Kahramanmaraş and Şırnak, C. schwarziana from Hakkâri and Kars. Ceratina chalcites ebmeri, C. denesi, C. hakkarica, C. rasmonti, C. warnckei and Exoneuri...

(Coleoptera: Cerambycidae), were studied in the Aras Valley (Kars and Erzurum provinces), Turkey, during 2006-2007. Five parasitoid species, Paraperithous gnathaulax (Thomson), Dolichomitus populneus (Ratzeburg), Dolichomitus tuberculatus (Geoffroy) (Hymenoptera: Ichneumonidae), Ipbiaulax impostor (Scopoli) (Hymenoptera: Braconidae), and Billaea irrorata (Meig.) (Diptera: Tachinidae), were reared from the over-wintering larvae living in the galls of S. populnea. Dolichomitus populneus was the most numerous of the parasitoids and accounted for 55% of all parasitoids reared. Ipbiaulax impostor and B. irrorata were reared from S. populnea for the first time in Turkey. Additionally, B. irrorata is a new record for the Turkish fauna.
The present contribution is based upon the ichneumonids collected from two different localities (... more The present contribution is based upon the ichneumonids collected from two different localities (Bayburt and Erzurum) of Turkey (Anatolia), in 1999 and 2003. A total of six species have been recorded in the subfamilies, Banchinae and Ichneumoninae. One genus (Aoplus) and five species were new records for the Turkish fauna. The Ichneumonidae (Hymenoptera), is a widespread and extremely large family, with an estimated 60 000 extant species in 35 genera worldwide (Townes, 1969). The Ichneumoninae has a worldwide distribution and is the second largest subfamily of Ichneumonidae with 373 genera and about 1700 species in Palaearctic Region. The species in this subfamily are koinobiont or idiobiont endoparasitoids of Lepidoptera (Rasnitsyn & Siitan, 1981). The Banchinae is another subfamily of the family Ichneumonidae with about 1,500 species world- wide. The tribes Banchini, Glyptini and Lissonotini are distributed worldwide (Townes & Townes, 1978). All Bachinae species are koinobiont end...

Its feeding habits and nature of damage were studied during the summers of 2013-2015. The adults appeared in the beginning of May and remained active throughout the summer until the middle of September. The adults showed nocturnal habit and fed at night, during the day time they remained on the ground or at the bottom of the trees. It was found to be an edge feeder; damaged leaves became irregularly shaped and left behind the veins of the leaves in some cases. The adults were also found damaging cherry leaves. Presumably, the adults over wintered in the dried plant refuge in the orchard.
