The faunistic review of 24 species and subspecies of Raphidioptera of Turkey including new data is given. Their occurrence is given based on original literature data. Six species – Pheostigma (Phe- ostigma) pilicollis, Pheostigma (Crassoraphidia) cyprica, Pheostigma (Pontoraphidia) rhodopica, Di- chrostigma flavipes, Xanthostigma xanthostigma, Parainocellia (Parainocellia) braueri are recorded as new for Turkish fauna. Key words: Insecta, Neuropterida, Raphidioptera, new data, faunistics, Turkey. The Raphidioptera is a small order of Neuropterida. The order comprises only two fam- ilies: Raphidiidae and Inoceliidae, it contains more than 215 species in the world. The range of Raphidioptera covers the Holarctic, except the north-eastern parts of North America. All Raphidioptera represents arboreal faunal elements (ASPÖCK, 1987; ASPÖCK et al. 1991). The Western Palaearctic harbors the highest number of species (about 110). Most of them are restricted to small areas. Before the year 1960, snakeflies of Turkey were very poorly investigated. The history of research on Raphidioptera of Turkey was limited to a few papers, mainly with descrip- tion of the new taxa (ALBARDA, 1891; NAVÁS, 1914, 1915; ESBEN-PETERSEN, 1932). More organised exploration and research on this group of insects started at the beginning of the nineteen sixties. FRANZ RESSL, HUBERT RAUSCH and URLIKE & HORST ASPÖCK carried several expeditions to Anatolia, which were particularly devoted to field work on Raphidioptera of Turkey. This huge material, investigated with respect to its taxonomy, systematics, biology and chorology is presented in few publications (ASPÖCK H., 1987; ASPÖCK H. & ASPÖCK U., 1964, 1965a, 1965b, 1966a, 1966b, 1967a, 1967b; ASPÖCK U. & ASPÖCK H., 1969). The snakeflies fauna of Turkey was investigated by several others neuropterologists, including Turkish specialists, (ASPÖCK H., ASPÖCK U. & SENGONCA, 1976, 1978; CANBULAT & KIYAK, 2006; CANBULAT & ÖZSARAÇ, 2004; GEPP, 1974; POPOV, 1977, 1992; Şengonca, 1979). From the 34 species and subspecies known from Turkey to present time, 19 species are endemic (ASPÖCK et al., 2001). This study on Raphidioptera is based on the original material (more than 1200 speci- mens) collected in the years 1998–2006, during entomological expeditions of the Upper Silesian Museum and Silesian Entomological Society. The authors based also on a small collection of snakeflies from Turkey preserved in the Zoological Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences in Sankt-Petersburg. 43 Pheostigma (Pheostigma) pilicollis (STEIN, 1863) (Fig. 1) MATERIAL EXAMINED: 2 ♂♂ 4 ♀♀ - Kırklareli, 12-13 V 2001, Yenice env. pass 41º45’N/27º40’E, NE of Pinarhisar, R.
