Doç. Dr. Ayla TÜZÜN Bu çalışma, 2007-2010 yılları arasında sinantrop sinekler ile en iyi mücadele yöntemlerinden olan biyolojik mücadele çerçevesinde, İran Urmiye’de hayvan çiftliklerindeki hayvanların dışkılarında bulunan ev sineğin puplarının parazitoidleri ve bu puplardaki doğal parazitizm oranını belirlemek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Seçilen 4 araştırma istasyonundan, toplam 29,116 ev sineği pupu toplanmış ve toplanan pupların 1124'ünden parazitoid elde edilmiştir. Toplanan parazitoidlerin 1108’inin Spalangia endius Walker (Hym. Pteromalidae) ve 16'sının Aleochara bipustulata Linnaeus (Col. Staphylinidae)ya ait olduğu ve toplam doğal parazitizm oranının %3.86 olduğu saptanmıştır. Sonuçta bu bölgede S. endius’un sinantrop sineklerle biyolojik mücadelede iyi bir potansiyele sahip olduğu da tespit edilmiştir. Ayrıca bu araştırmada, Urmiye’de adli entomoloji açısından önemli olan böcek türleri, özellikle de ikikanatlıları tesbit etmek amacıyla balık, tavuk, inek, koyun gibi çeşitli hayvanların leşlerinin çeşitli dokuları ve iç organları (baş, göbek, dalak, deri, karaciğer vb. ) 53 gün açık bir bahçede çürümeye bırakılmış, leşin üzerinde ve içinde veya toprağın altında bulunan larva, pupa ve erginler incelenmiş ve teşhisleri yapılmıştır. Sonuçta 5 ordo,11 familya, 16 cins ve 18 türe ait toplam 3,179 örnek tespit edilmiş olup. Bunlar Psychoda sp. (Dip. Psychodidae), Calliphora vicina (Dip. Calliphoridae), Calliphora vomitoria (Dip.

Prof. Dr. Ayla TÜZÜN A study was conducted in the city of Urmia (West Azerbayjan province, İran) during 2007- 2010, and in order to study the natural parasitism of fly pupa, frequent samplings of pupae (47 times) were made in refuge dump in animal husbandries of Urmia. Ambient daily temperature (maximum, minimum) and relative humidity were recorded using a max/min thermometer and a sling-type psychrometer, respectively and the fly pupae were obtained by the flotation method. A total of 29,116 housefly pupae were collected. Spalangia endius Walker, with 3.8% average percentage of parasitis, was determined the most dominant species of parasitoid wasps in field samples. Other species of parasites was Aleochara bipustulata Linnaeus, with 0.05% average percentage of natural parasitism. This study has proven the fact that S. endius can be used as a biological control agent of synanthropic flies in the above mentioned region. In addition a secondary aim of this study was to identify insects, especially diptera species, of forensic importance in Urmia. A combinations of various body viscera and tissues of some of vertebrated animals (sheep, cow, fish and hen), such as the head, paunch, spleen, intestine, derma and liver, was exposed in an open area on the private possession for 53 days. Existing keys were used for identification of different species. A total 3,179 individuals were collected, belonging to 5 orders (Diptra, Coleoptera, Hymenoptera, Dermaptera and Blattaria), 11 families, 16 genera and 18 species; Psychoda sp, (Dip. Psychodidae), Calliphora vicina (Dip. Calliphoridae), Calliphora vomitoria (Dip. Calliphoridae), Lucilia sericata (Dip. Calliphoridae), Chrysoma sp. (Dip.Calliphoridae), Musca domestica (Dip. Muscidae), Muscina stabulans (Dip. Muscidae), Fannia canicularis (Dip. Fannidae), Sarcophaga haemorrhoidalis (Dip. Sarcophagidae), Sarcophaga sp. (Dip. Sarcophagidae), Wohlfartia magnifica (Dip. Sarcophagidae), Dermestes maculates (Col. Dermestidae), Necrophorus sp. (Col. Silphidae), Blatta orientalis (Blattaria. Blattidae), Vespula germanica (Hym.Vespidae), Messor caducus (Hym.

Squitier 2 Introduction Distribution The family Tabanidae, commonly known as horse flies and Horse flies and deer flies are world wide in distribution. deer flies, contains pests of cattle, horses, and humans. In They are, however, unreported in Hawaii, Greenland, and Florida there are 35 species of Tabanidae that are consid- Iceland. In the United States, Florida produces a large ered economically important. Horse flies are in the genus population of tabanids because of the availability of suitable Tabanus and deer flies are in the genusChrysops . The yellow habitat. Florida’s mild climate and large, permanently wet fly, Diachlorus ferrugatus (Fabricius), is known in Florida and undeveloped areas provide good breeding areas. as a fierce biter. Like mosquitoes, it is the female fly that is responsible for inflicting a bite. The males are mainly pollen Description and nectar feeders. Tabanids are most likely encountered in hot summer and early fall weather. They are active during Eggs daylight hours. Eggs are laid in masses ranging from 100 to 1000 eggs. Eggs are laid in layers on a vertical surface, such as overhanging foliage, projecting rocks, sticks, and aquatic vegetation. Aquatic vegetation is preferred. A shiny or chalky secre- tion, which aids in water protection, often covers eggs. The vertical surfaces on which the eggs are deposited are always directly over water and wet ground favorable to the development of larvae. The female will not deposit egg masses on vegetation that is too dense.

  • Species to Malaise Traps Baited with 1-Octan-3-Ol and 4-Methylphenol
    J. Entomol. Res. Soc., 16(1): 111-117, 2014 ISSN:1302-0250 Response of Tabanidae (Diptera) Species to Malaise Traps Baited with 1-octan-3-ol and 4-methylphenol Ferhat ALTUNSOY1 Mehmet Yakup AFACAN2 Anadolu University Faculty of Science Biology Department, Eskişehir, TURKEY e-mails: [email protected], [email protected] ABSTRACT Natural and synthetic attractants have been widely used for controlling horse fly populations. Relative responses of horse fly species to different attractants may vary under the different environmental conditions in different geographical areas. Many studies reported that, octanol and methylphenol are effective attractants for horse fly species and when they were combined with phenolic compounds together, their attractant effect increased. In this study we examine the effectiveness of Malaise traps baited with octenol and methylphenol on tabanids species in the province of Eskişehir, Çatacık Forests and Hekim Mountain in Turkey. As a result, a total of 3045, 1428 and 626 specimens were caught with the trap baited with octanol, methylphenol and the control trap, respectively. The results of this study are compared and evaluated with the results of previous studies performed with natural and synthetic attractants in different geographical regions. The results obtained demonstrated that, octanol and methylphenol can be used effectively for controlling horse flies in this part of Turkey. Key words: Tabanidae, Octanol, Methylphenol, Diptera, Turkey. INTRODUCTION Recently, 3 subfamilies, 167 species belonging 9 genera and 14 subspecies of horse flies were reported in Turkey (Kılıç, 2006; Andreevaet al., 2009; Altunsoy and Kılıç, 2010). The number of known species in Palearctic region is approximately 660 (Chvála, 1988).

With the exception of about a dozen common and wide-ranging species which seem to prefer the more open and disturbed habiats created by man’s agricultural activities, most tabanids have definite habitat preferences. This aspect of their biolgy has been little studied, although Fairchild (1953) summarized knowledge of the arboreal species and Chvala & Stary (1967) noted habitat referencs for Cuban speces. Philip (1978) and Fairchild (1973) noted preferences of certain species for the mangrove swamp habitat [Lutz, 1922: 148 had already noted that larvae of Tabanus obsoletus Wiedemann, 1821 live in that environment].

  • Ichneumonidae (Hymenoptera) As Biological Control Agents of Pests
    Ichneumonidae (Hymenoptera) As Biological Control Agents Of Pests A Bibliography Hassan Ghahari Department of Entomology, Islamic Azad University, Science & Research Campus, P. O. Box 14515/775, Tehran – Iran; [email protected] Preface The Ichneumonidae is one of the most species rich families of all organisms with an estimated 60000 species in the world (Townes, 1969). Even so, many authorities regard this figure as an underestimate! (Gauld, 1991). An estimated 12100 species of Ichneumonidae occur in the Afrotropical region (Africa south of the Sahara and including Madagascar) (Townes & Townes, 1973), of which only 1927 have been described (Yu, 1998). This means that roughly 16% of the afrotropical ichneumonids are known to science! These species comprise 338 genera. The family Ichneumonidae is currently split into 37 subfamilies (including, Acaenitinae; Adelognathinae; Agriotypinae; Alomyinae; Anomaloninae; Banchinae; Brachycyrtinae; Campopleginae; Collyrinae; Cremastinae; Cryptinae; Ctenopelmatinae; 1 Diplazontinae; Eucerotinae; Ichneumoninae; Labeninae; Lycorininae; Mesochorinae; Metopiinae; Microleptinae; Neorhacodinae; Ophioninae; Orthopelmatinae; Orthocentrinae; Oxytorinae; Paxylomatinae; Phrudinae; Phygadeuontinae; Pimplinae; Rhyssinae; Stilbopinae; Tersilochinae; Tryphoninae; Xoridinae) (Yu, 1998). The Ichneumonidae, along with other groups of parasitic Hymenoptera, are supposedly no more species rich in the tropics than in the Northern Hemisphere temperate regions (Owen & Owen, 1974; Janzen, 1981; Janzen & Pond, 1975), although
