Abstract

The purpose of this study is to give additional records on the fauna of Staphylininae in Turkey. The field trips were made in different provinces of Turkey between 2007-2018. 69 specimens collected using aspirators were examined. In conclusion of the examined material, twelve species of the subfamily Staphylininae were reported from different regions of Turkey. Among them, Atrecus affinis (Paykull, 1789) from Central Anatolian Region, Dinothenarus flavocephalus (Goeze, 1777) and Neobisnius orbus orbus (Kiesenwetter, 1850) from Eastern Anatolian Region and Philonthus atratus (Gravenhorst, 1802) from Aegean Region are recorded for the first time. In addition, new locality records of the recorded species were presented.

Türkiye'deki Staphylininae (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae) Altfamilyası Üzerine Faunistik Çalışmalar

Abstract

Bu çalışmanın amacı, Türkiye'deki Staphylininae faunası hakkında ek kayıtlar vermektir. Arazi çalışmaları 2007-2018 yılları arasında Türkiye'nin farklı illerinde yapılmıştır. Aspiratörler kullanılarak toplanan 69 örnek incelenmiştir. İncelenen materyal sonucunda Türkiye'nin farklı bölgelerinden Staphylininae alt familyasına ait on iki tür rapor edilmiştir. Bunlardan Atrecus affinis (Paykull, 1789) İç Anadolu Bölgesi'nden, Dinothenarus flavocephalus (Goeze, 1777) ve Neobisnius orbus orbus (Kiesenwetter, 1850) Doğu Anadolu Bölgesi'nden ve Philonthus atratus (Gravenhorst, 1802) Ege Bölgesi'nden ilk kez kaydedilmiştir. Ayrıca kayıt altına alınan türler için yeni lokalite kayıtları sunulmuştur.
