Abstract

Studies were implemented in the Southeastern Anatolia
Region in Şanlıurfa, Akçakale and Mardin, Kızıltepe districts between the years
2006 and 2007. At the end of the study, 10 species belonging to the Syrphidae
family, 2 species belonging to the Lygaeidae family, 3 species belonging to the
Miridae family, and 6 species belonging to the Anthocoridae family were
detected. The number of species   was 21 in total. Cotton and corn are grown in
the area as mono-culture. This reduces the number of natural enemies. It has be
seen that increase in alfalfa cultivation area can increase the number of
natural enemies.
