First record of Caliscelis (Caliscelis) bonellii (LATREILLE, 1807) (Hemiptera: Fulgoromorpha: Caliscelidae) from Turkey, with redescription of the species
Ahmet DURSUN & Meral FENT
A b s t r a c t : In the present Study Caliscelis bonellii (LATREILLE, 1807) was given for the first time as a new geographical record in Turkey. This species is redescribed and figured by examination of specimen from Turkish Thrace region. Key words: Caliscelis (Caliscelis) bonellii, redescription, new record, Turkey.
Introduction The suborder Fulgoromorpha is known very rich in species diversity in Hemiptera. Caliscelidae AMYOT & SERVILLE, 1843 in Fulgoromorpha includes nearly 200 species belonging to more than 70 genera divided between two subfamilies with five tribes (GNEZDILOV 2015). The Genera Caliscelis LAPORTE DE CASTELNAU, 1833 is including in Tribe Caliscelini AMYOT & SERVILLE, 1843. The species of the genera Caliscelis are distributed in Palaearctic (Europe, Asia, North Africa), Nearctic (USA-California), Neotropic (Brazil), Ethiopia (South Africa, Congo, Sudan) and Oriental (China) regions. Caliscelis s.str. and Bambula contains seven species, Caurca have two species and one subspecies, Cerepa and Melanero have two species. The planthopper species Caliscelis affinis (FIEBER, 1876), Caliscelis bolivari HORVÁTH, 1904, Caliscelis bonellii (LATREILLE, 1807), Caliscelis dimidiata COSTA, 1863, Caliscelis tricolor (COSTA, 1834), Caliscelis unicolor (COSTA, 1834) and Caliscelis wallengreni (STÅL, 1863) are distributed in Europe (EMELJANOV, 2015). As a result of studies with Caliscelis genera in Turkey are known Caliscelis (Bambula) affinis from Thrace region and Caliscelis (Bambula) wallengreni from Bolkar Mountain (Anatolia). The species Caliscelis bonellii (LATREILLE, 1807) was described from Italy and it was introduced from Southern Europe to U.S.A (California) (O’BRIEN 1967).
Material and Methode The research material consist from Thrace region of Turkey in 2015 (Map 1). Male pygophore and parameres were used to identify the species. For preparation of the genitalia, sample was softened in hot water and their genitalia were extracted. Based on the examined specimen, the species was redescribed and figured (Figs 1-6). The material examined is deposited in the collection of Amasya University, Faculty of Science and Arts, Department of Biology (Amasya-Turkey). ©Biologiezentrum Linz, Austria; download unter www.zobodat.at

Material examined: 30.06.2015, Kırkareli, Babaeski, Doğanca, 1♂ (leg. & det. A. DURSUN & M. FENT). R e d e s c r i p t i o n : Body length 2.8 mm., head width 0.7 mm, and head length 0.3 mm. Body generally Brown. Head blackish Brown. Head with eyes slightly narrower than pronotum, eyes quite large. Antennas located in front of eyes scapular and pedicel segments dark brown and with dirty white speckled, flagellum filiform and long. Frons blackish brown, with two parallel carinae near eyes. Clypeus blackish brown. Upper wings yellowish brown, middle with, blackish brown stripes in the laterally. These strips unified in the distally. Costal area greenish brown (Figs 1, 2). Rostrum brown, extending to hind coxa (Figs 3, 4). Front legs blackish brown, femur and tibia leaf-shaped. Tibia longer 2.3 times of width, femur longer 1.8 times of width. Hind legs and thorax reddish brown. Lateral edges of hind tibias with a spine. Abdomen ventral with dirty yellow stained (Fig 4). Pygophore without spines, anal tube as in figure 5. The left and right parameres with numerous spines (Fig 6). Distribution: The species C. bonellii is distributed in Europe; Austria, Bosnia- Herzogovina, Croatia, Bulgaria, France, Greece, Italy (including Sardegna, Sicily), Hungary, Portugal, Russia, Serbia, Slovenia, Spain, Switzerland and as well as the Nearctic zoogeographic region in the United States (California) (O’BRIEN 1967; DROSOPOULOS 1990; MÜHLETHALER et al. 2009; BARTLETT et al. 2014) In the study, the species Caliscelis bonellii (LATREILLE, 1807) of the family Caliscelidae is recorded the first time in Thrace region of Turkey. The species number of the genus Caliscelis known from Turkey was increased to 3 by the addition Caliscelis bonellii. The present finding is the easternmost record of distribution of the species.

1063 say for this species which is not distrubuted in Asia and has not recorded in the Asian part of Turkey yet, the straits (Dardanel and Bosphorus) and Marmara See are formed a barrier. Caliscelis bonelli is known as threatened species (EN) to the criteria of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) in Switzerland (MÜHLETHALER et al. 2016). The fact that a single sample has been found in the studies carried out for 3 years in the Thrace region, this found give the impression that rarely distributed.
