Khachikov, Akın Temizer University, Elazığ, Turkey Abstract Sinan Anlaş In this study, we aimed to determine the occurrence of Staphylininae (Stapylinidae, Coleoptera) Alaşehir Vocational School, Celal subfamily species on different locations in Elazığ province of Turkey. Specimens were collected by using Bayar University, TR-45600, shifter and separated in the laboratory. Thirteen species from Staphylininae subfamily in altogether 157 ş Ala ehir, Manisa, Turkey specimens were collected.

Introduction The Staphylinidae is most diverse family of the order Coleoptera, comprising about 60,000 species belonging to 33 subfamilies in all zoogeographical regions of the world [1]. According to Staphylinidae catalog of Herman (Newton AF, 2007) [2]; Staphylininae subfamily is a third largest subfamily which are 6642 species belonging to 282 species within the Staphylinidae family. According to Anlas (Anlaş S, 2009) [3] is located that 1600 staphylinid species in Turkey which depends on their 346 Staphylininae subfamily. Staphylininae fauna isn’t researched very well in Turkey. Also in Elazığ province, the records kept faunistically in terms of the individual species pertaining to this family are scarcely any. In studies in previous years Staphylinidae species have been reported 9 species in Tunceli, 3 species in Malatya provinces (Anlaş S, 2009) [3]. Additionally; in studies to determine the species of Gabrius genus Tunceli from Gabrius femoralis (Hochhuth, 1851) and Gabrius nigritulus (Gravenhorst, 1802), Gabrius nigritulus (Gravenhorst, 1802) from Elazığ, Gabrius ravasini (Gridelli, 1920) from Muş, while the Gabrius tokatensis (Smetana, 1977) species from Erzincan districts were obtained [4]. The aim of the present study is to determine the Staphylininae fauna of Elazığ province of Turkey in 2012 and 2014. 2. Material and Methods The rove beetles were collected in different fields in Elazığ by using shifter methods and eye control under the stone in 2012 and 2014. Classification and nomenclature of the subfamily Staphylininae suggested by Löbl & Smetana [5] have been followed in this study. Material identified by E. Khachikov, İ. Özgen and S. Anlaş and deposited in the private collection of the first author. 3.

It has been observed that the species belonging to Xantholinae family are mostly found under the ~ 225 ~ Journal of Entomology and Zoology Studies stones on streamside. The whole of species gathered partakes of the first records for provincial insect fauna. G. tokatensis, R. ocaloides, X. graecus, G. fulgidus, P. intermedius, O. mus, O. helleni, O. sericeicollis and O. curtipennis have been determined for the first time in the insect fauna of Eastern Anatolia Region. The number of species in the province is expected to increase with future studies. 4.
