Studies on Turkish Hydrophilidae (Coleoptera) IV. Genus Berosus Leach, 1817 with description of a new species: Berosus dentalis sp. n.

Year 2011, Volume: 35 Issue: 2, 231 - 244, 30.06.2011

Abstract

A check list of Berosus spp. (Coleoptera: Hydrophilidae) known in Turkey are presented with their distributions in Turkey. 14 species of the genus are determined. Of these, Berosus dentalis sp. n. is described from Middle Anatolia (Kayseri). Descriptions of Berosus (Enoplurus) guttalis and B. (Enoplurus) asiaticus, newly recorded for the Turkish fauna, are reviewed. Figures of some diagnostic characters of these species are provided. The ecology of some species is shortly discussed. Distributional maps of each subgenus in Turkey are presented. A short identification key of Turkish species of the genus is also given.

Abstract

Türkiye’den bilinen Berosus (Coleoptera: Hydrophilidae) türlerinin kontrol listesi, Türkiye’deki dağılımlarıyla birlikte verilmiştir. Toplam 14 tür tespit edilmiş, bunlardan, Berosus dentalis sp. n. Orta Anadolu (Kayseri)’dan tanımlanmıştır. Türkiye faunası için yeni kayıt olan Berosus (Enoplurus) guttalis ve B. (Enoplurus) asiaticus gözden geçirilmiş ve bu türlerin bazı ayırt edici karekterlerinin şekilleri verilmiştir. Bazı türlerin ekolojileri kısaca tartışılmış, her bir altcinsin Türkiye’deki dağılım haritası sunulmuştur. Cinsin Türkiye türlerine ait kısa bir teşhis anahtarı da verilmiştir.
