Although several factors contribute to this, the lack of an up-to-date and comprehensive review is a basic factor. To address this issue, we compiled a list of all the Heteroptera species recorded from Turkey in the literature and iNaturalist. In addition, we re-examined several specimens preserved in the Lodos Entomological Museum, İzmir, Turkey (LEMT). Consequently, we excluded 24 species from the checklist of Heteroptera fauna of Turkey, and proposed a new synonymy: Psallus (Psallus) pardalis Seidenstücker, 1966 = Psallus (Psallus) oenderi Wagner, 1976 syn. nov. Furthermore, we recorded following six species from Turkey for the first time: Blissus hirtulus Burmeister, 1835 (Blissidae), Loricula (Loricula) pselaphiformis Curtis, 1833 (Microphysidae), Globiceps (Globiceps) coryli V.G. Putshkov, 1970, Heterocordylus (Heterocordylus) cytisi Josifov, 1958, Mesopsallus fagi (Drapolyuk, 1990) and Psallus (Psallus) helenae Josifov, 1969 (Miridae); and described following six species as new for science: Orthonotus efei Çerçi & Koçak sp. nov., Orthotylus (Parapachylops) oenderi Çerçi, Tezcan & Koçak sp. nov., Orthotylus (Pinocapsus) girayi Çerçi & Tezcan sp. nov., Psallus (Psallus) eceae Çerçi & Koçak sp. nov., Psallus (Psallus) pehlivani Çerçi & Tezcan sp. nov. and Ribautocapsus tezcani Çerçi sp. nov. Altogether, 1668 species of Heteroptera have been recorded from Turkey (664 species in the European part and 1633 species in the Anatolian part) until now, out of them, the presence of 37 species needs confirmation. We determined the chorotypical composition of species as follows: Mediterranean (399 spp., 23.9%), European (380 spp., 22.8%), Local (280 spp., 16.8%), Widespread (182 spp., 10.9%), Endemic (128 spp., 7.7%), Turanian (127 spp., 7.5%), Turano-Mediterranean (89 spp., 5.3%), Europeo-Mediterranean (68 spp., 4.1%) and Alien (12 spp., 0.7%).
We showed that provinces in the Eastern Anatolian, Southeastern Anatolian, and Black Sea regions had lower numbers of species recorded, compared to the provinces in the remaining regions. Finally, we underlined that 109 species, absent from Turkey, were recorded from three or more neighboring countries of Turkey. In summary, our findings emphasize that despite the abundant research devoted over the last 150 years to the Heteroptera fauna of Turkey, our understanding of it remains incomplete in the majority, if not in all, of the regions. Our findings strongly encourage further research, particularly in regions with small numbers of recorded species. This endeavor will undoubtedly lead to numerous novel discoveries and provide a better understanding of the true Heteroptera diversity in Turkey.

The predominant orders, along with their respective species and subspecies counts and percentages in descending order, are as follows: Coleoptera (13 396 / 35.44%), Hymenoptera (8 053 / 21.31%), Lepidoptera (5 606 / 14.83%), Diptera (4 329 / 11.45%), and Hemiptera (3 751 / 9.93%). These five orders collectively account for 35135 species and subspecies, constituting 92.96% of the total. The remaining orders each contribute less than 2% to the overall count. The article also delves into the dynamics of species and subspecies changes within families, highlighting the shifts in Turkey's fauna over the past 15 years.

In this context, an analysis was carried out on the publications produced in the specified period and it was noted that the number of publications increased since the 1990s and reached its highest level in the 2000s. Then, the identified species were evaluated according to their orders, agricultural production approaches adopted at orchards from where the species were collected, the provinces where the species was sampled, the sampling method(s) of the species, the months in which the species was sampled, and the feeding habits of the species. Additionally, the establishment and occurrence of the species in the agroecosystem were also examined. At the end of the article, the presence of the species in publications was examined and attention was drawn to what should be done in the future by the relevant parties.

Field practices were carried out between January and December 2019 throughout the year. These practices were carried out in sixteen habitats, which were evaluated categories as agricultural and non-agricultural areas. Habitats where olive, pomegranate, fig, vine and mandarin orchards are grown have created agricultural areas. Other areas are stone pine, eucalyptus / stone pine mixed area, cypress, christ’s thorn, grasses and in-stream habitats. As a result of this study, using ethylene glycol pitfall traps placed in the soil, a total of 12 click beetle species belonging to 8 genera were determined. Among them, Aeoloides atricapillus (Germar, 1824) was evaluated as the first record for İzmir fauna. The most common species in the study area were Drasterius bimaculatus (Rossi, 1790) and Melanotus fusciceps (Gyllenhal, 1817).

As a result of the study, a total of nine species, seven from Vespidae family and two from Apidae family, were caught. When the samples caught were evaluated according to the type of trap used, a total of 2919 samples belonging to both families were caught, 1028 (35.22%) with wine bait traps and 1891 (64.78%) with fig bait traps. The number of species caught with wine bait traps is eight, and the number of species caught with fig bait traps is nine. Separately, 317 (33.87%) of 936 samples in the Vespidae family were caught with wine bait traps and 619 (66.13%) with fig bait traps. The proportional superiority seen in fig bait traps is also valid for Vespinae (64.05%) and Polistinae (75.44%) subfamilies. Also, 64.15% of the species in the Apidae family were caught with fig bait traps and 35.85% with wine bait traps. The most caught number species is Apis mellifera Linnaeus, 1758 (67.52%), and it is thought to be beneficial to carefully consider the issue by fig producers and beekeepers in order to prevent bee losses caused by bait traps, especially in areas where mobile beekeeping is performed.

Çalışma sonucunda Delphacidae, Dictyopharidae, Issidae ve Cicadellidae familyalarına ait 21 tür belirlenmiştir. Bunlardan Edıvardsiana avellana (Edwards, 1888) (Cicadellidae) örneği en bol bulunan tür olup, Hysteropterum assimile Horvath, 1905 (Issidae) endemiktir. Hecalus storai (Lindberg, 1936) (Cicadellidae) türü Türkiye faunası için ilk kayıt olup, H. assimile, ldiocerus lituratus (Fallen, 1806), Balcanocerus larvatus (Herrich-Schaffer, 1837), Populicerus populi (Linnaeus, 1758), Aphrodes albifrons (Linnaeus, 1758), Exitianus taeniatiçeps (Kirschbaum, 1868), Psammotettix aliénas (Dahlbom, 1850), Osbornellus macchiae consangineus Dlabola, 1962 ve Idiodonus cruentatus (Panzer, 1799) (Cicadellidae) türleri ise Manisa yöresinden ilk kez bildirilmiştir.This study was carried out to determine the Auchenorrhyncha (Homoptera) fauna of the Origanum spp. in two fields at Turgutlu and Salihli provinces during the years of 1998 and 1999. The specimens were collected weekly intervals by sweeping during april-november. As a result of studies, 21 species were determined belonging to four families (Delphacidae, Dictyopharidae, Issidae and Cicadellidae) of Homoptera. Among those Edwardsiana avellana (Edwards, 1888) (Cicadellidae) was found as dominant species and Hysteropterum assimile Horvath, 1905 (Issidae) was endemic. Hecalus storai (Lindberg, 1936) (Cicadellidae) was new record for the Turkish fauna and H. assimile, Idiocerus lituratus (Fallen, 1806), Balcanocerus larvatus (Herrich-Schaffer, 1837), Populicerus populi (Linnaeus, 1758), Aphrodes albifrons (Linnaeus, 1758), Exitianus taeniaticeps (Kirschbaum, 1868), Psammotettix aliénas (Dahlbom, 1850), Osbornellus macchiae consangineus Dlabola, 1962, and Idiodonus cruentatus (Panzer, 1799) (Cicadellidae) were found first time from Manisa province
The species belonging to Reuteria Puton 1875 present in Lodos Entomological Museum, Turkey (LEMT)... more The species belonging to Reuteria Puton 1875 present in Lodos Entomological Museum, Turkey (LEMT) are reviewed. Up to now, only Reuteria marqueti Puton 1875 and R. winkelmanni Günther & Strauss 2018 had been recorded from Turkey. In this study, Reuteria riegeri torosensis ssp. n., R. atalayi sp. n. and R. serratis sp. n. are described as new subspecies and species and from Turkey, respectively. Presence of R. marqueti in Turkey is discussed and considered as doubtful. Consequently, total number of Reuteria species known from Turkey rises to four. Additionally, unknown female of R. winkelmanni is described and illustrated, and an identification key for Reuteria species of Turkey is presented.

paper by Serdar Tezcan
We showed that provinces in the Eastern Anatolian, Southeastern Anatolian, and Black Sea regions had lower numbers of species recorded, compared to the provinces in the remaining regions. Finally, we underlined that 109 species, absent from Turkey, were recorded from three or more neighboring countries of Turkey. In summary, our findings emphasize that despite the abundant research devoted over the last 150 years to the Heteroptera fauna of Turkey, our understanding of it remains incomplete in the majority, if not in all, of the regions. Our findings strongly encourage further research, particularly in regions with small numbers of recorded species. This endeavor will undoubtedly lead to numerous novel discoveries and provide a better understanding of the true Heteroptera diversity in Turkey.
practices were carried out between January and December 2019 throughout the year. These practices were carried out in sixteen habitats, which were evaluated categories as agricultural and non-agricultural areas. Habitats where olive, pomegranate, fig, vine and mandarin
orchards are grown have created agricultural areas. Other areas are stone pine, eucalyptus / stone pine mixed area, cypress, christ’s thorn, grasses and in-stream habitats. As a result of this study, using ethylene glycol pitfall traps placed in the soil, a total of 12 click beetle species
belonging to 8 genera were determined. Among them, Aeoloides atricapillus (Germar, 1824) was evaluated as the first record for İzmir fauna. The most common species in the study area were Drasterius bimaculatus (Rossi, 1790) and Melanotus fusciceps (Gyllenhal, 1817).
