A survey was conducted in Edirne Province, Turkey for the pinewood nematode, Bursaphelenchus xylophilus. Wood samples were collected from declining black pine trees. Nematodes were extracted from wood samples and insect specimens were collected. Nematodes were observed and identified microscopically and molecularly with the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) of ribosomal DNA. Bursaphelenchus xylophilus was not detected, but B. mucronatus was found in very high numbers with an average up to 300 nematodes/g of wood shaving. Acanthocinus griseus (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) was detected to be associated with B. mucronatus as a potential vector. This is the first report of B. mucronatus association with A. griseus in Turkey.

Turkey constitutes an biogeographical bridge that connects Europe, Asia and Africa. Publications on its insect fauna began almost 180 years ago. To date, no studies have summarized the data in the massive body of publications compiled on its insect diversity. The current research addressed that situation by throroughly analyzing published notes, catalogues, databases and systematic revisions and other work on the insect fauna of Turkey. This study reports that the insect fauna of Turkey as of end-2019 is composed of 33820 known species and subspecies in 562 families and 25 orders. The number of species and subspecies of the dominant orders and their percentages are given in descending order, as follows: Coleoptera (11910 / 35.22%), Hymenoptera (6641 / 19.64%), Lepidoptera (5580 / 16.50%), Diptera (3742 / 11.06%), Hemiptera (3424 / 10.13%) and Orthoptera (734 / 2.17%). For these six orders, the total number of species and subspecies is 32031, which is 94.71% of the total. The extraordinary biogeographic diversity of Turkey, which includes Mediterranean, Irano-Anatolian and Caucasian biodiversity hotspots, is reflected in the chorotype analyses which showed that Mediterranean, European and Asiatic chorotypes are prominent. Moreover, there is a high proportion of endemic species and subspecies (3785 / 11.20% of total), with the numbers and percentages varying widely across the taxa. Furthermore, the number of reported endemics has increased by 49% since 2008. The data compiled in this study highlights the urgent need for protection of the extraordinarily diverse insect fauna of Turkey and their habitats.
Yıllarında gerçekleştirilen bu çalışmayla Kemalpaşa (İzmir) yöresi kiraz ağaçlarının Heteroptera faunasının ortaya konulması amaçlanmış ve Nisan -Ekim ayları boyunca haftalık periyotlarla 3 farklı yöredeki (Ören, Örnekköy, Kuyucak) kiraz bahçesinde incelemeler sürdürülmüştür. Çalışma sonucunda Heteroptera takımının 8 familyasına bağlı 22 tür belirlenmiştir. Bunlar içinde Apodiphus amygdali, Stephanitis pyri, Acrorrhinium conspersus ve Orthotylus nassatus en bol bulunan türlerdir. Saptanan türler beslenme özelliklerine göre de değerlendirilmiş olup A.amygdali, Mustha spinosula, Raphigaster nebulosa, Dolycoris baccarum, Palomena prasina, P. viridissima, Gonocerus acuteangulatus, Lygaeus equestris, L. pandurus, Stephanitis pyri, A. conspersus, Ectagela guttata ve O. nassatus'un fitofag, Atractotomus mali, Deraeocoris lutescens, D. serenus, Isometopus mirificus, Anthocoris nemoralis, Dufouriellus ater, Orius minutus, Nagusta goedeli'nin zoofag ve Pilophorus perplexus'un fitozoofag olduğu anlaşılmıştır.

The present study was carried out in Diyarbakır Province (N 37°53'36.96", E 40°16'13.65", 666 m) in Southeastern Anatolia Region of Turkey in 2018-2020. Prunus cerasifera tree parts infested by the buprestid beetle, Ptosima undecimmaculata, were cut in June 2018 and February 2019 (Figs. 1-2) and Prunus persica infested by buprestids larvae, Ptosima undecimmaculata (Herbst, 1784) and Sphenoptera (Tropeopeltis) tappesi Marseul, 1865, respecitvely were cut and placed in plastic boxes until host and/ or their potential parasitoids were reared. Three ichneumonid parasitoids, Dolichomitus kriechbaumeri (Schulz, 1906), Poemenia notata Holmgren, 1859 and Xorides gravenhorstii (Curtis, 1831), were obtained. New host records were found: P. undecimmaculata for D. kriechbaumeri and S. tappesi for X. gravenhorstii. All three parasitoid species were reared from the studied plants for the first time. P. notata is a new record for Turkish fauna.

This study was carried out to determine the Buprestidae (Coleoptera) species of stone fruit trees in Tekirdağ. Field studies was conducted in 4 different districts; Malkara, Muratlı, Şarköy and Süleymanpaşa between March 2014-January 2016. Samplings and observations on cherry, peach and plum orchards will be carried out representing at least 10% of the total area. Species of the family Buprestidae and their densities was determined using different sampling methods as visual observation, trapping, and beating. A total of 13 species belonging to 9 genera were identified. These species were; Anthaxia (Anthaxia) nitidula signaticollis

This study was conducted in 2019 on pine trees in Dicle University Campus. Bark samples were taken from the dried pine trees and brought to the laboratory. Samples were cultured in plastic containers in 26 ± 1 O C, 65 ± 5% humidity and climatic chambers set to 16: 8 period. As a result of this study, Buprestis (Ancylocheira) dalmatina Mannerheim, 1837 species belonging to Buprestidae family of Coleoptera was determined. This is the first record for pine trees in Diyarbakir. In addition, this species is the first record for the insect fauna of Diyarbakır. This harmful species, which is one of the rare insect species in the world, is thought to have entered the province of Diyarbakır, possibly through production materials brought to the region without supervision.

In the study, it was aimed to determine the insect fauna of some provinces of Central, Eastern and Southeastern Anatolian Regions, with in the Nabucco Natural Gas pipeline (Şirnak-Sivas) biological diversity survey study. In this context, insect species were colleted from 25 different localities and one light-trap locality belonging to seven provinces (Sivas, Adiyaman, Malatya, Şanliurfa, Diyarbakir, Mardin and Şirnak). A total of 301 taxa are given in the list belonging to 11 order and 69 families. Results were evaluated in the means of species diversity in this area.
