Family Gicadellidae Typhlocybinae : Typhlocybini ( Part i ) Nlyazd LODOS* Ayla KALKANDELEN** Summary Turkish fauna of Typhloeybini, excluding Eupteryx species, is represented by 19 species of 9 genera as a re su lt of this study. Seven newly recorded species are: Edwardsiana avellanae (Edw.), E. flavescens (F.), E. sallcioola (Edw.), Eupteryeyba jueunda (H.S.), Ficoeyba fiearia (Horv.) , Typhloeyba quereus (F.) and Aguriahana germart (Zett.). Distribution, abundanee and the plants on which the specimens were eolleeted of eaeh species are given. Introduction Turkish T!yphlocilbini was not studied as a whole up to date. Howe­ ver, only 12 species of this group have been reported previouslv by se­ veral workers, The Hrst record made by Fahringer (1922) was Ed­ wardsiana Iethierryi (Edw.). Metcalf (1968) also Iisted this species from Turkeyaccording to Fahringer (1.c.). Dlabola (1957) reported Ribautiana ognevi (Zach.) trom Turkey tınder the name of 'Iyphlocyba horvathiana Dlab, Linnavuori (1965) also recorded such species as Linnavuoriana sexmaculata (Hardy), Youngiada tarsalis Linn. and Zygineı1la pulchra (Löw) from Turkey. Ural et al. (1973) recorded Edwardsiana spinigera (Edw.) during the taunistic study in hazel orchards in eastern Black Sea Coast. Dlabola (1971, 1981) reported Edwardsiana rosae (L,.) , E. tshlrıari Zach., Ribautiana alces (Rıb.), R. tenerrima (RS.) and Younglada pandellei (Leth.) addrtionally in his publicatdons, * University of Ege, Faculty of Agriculture, Plant Protection Department, Bornova, İzmir-Turkey. ** Plant Proteetion Researeh Institute, Plant Protection Museum, Kalaba, Ankara­ Turkey. Almış (Received) : 16.9.1982 33 In this group of typhlocybids, especially E. rosae ls known to cause damage on cultıvated plants, Vereshchagina (19'62) reported that it canses much damage to truit trees in orchards and nurseries in Soviet Moldavia, and overwıntered exclusively on cultivated and wild roses. The females deposit their eggs in the balik alorıg the shoots. Nymphs teed on new leaves in sprirıg. Adults migrate to apple and quince in May. Baggfolini (1968) stated alsa that this species found on apple in 'I'icino and French Swi:tzerland. Simmak and Petrev (1975) repor­ ted this speeies a:s one of the most injurrous pest of oil- bearirıg rO;30 in Crimea. Wilde (1962) reported it beirıg tound commonly on sweet meTYY. it has beerı cbserved being destructrve on apples in Niğde (Bor) in Turkey during 19'81. Bibautiana tenurrima (H.'S.) has been repcr­ bed being a serious pest of various berrıes (Andison, 1950; Raine, 1960). Edwardsiana avellanae (Edw.) and E. spinigera (Edw.) on hazel and Ficocyba Iicarla (Horv.) on figs may cause damage when they build up large populaeions. The otner speeies are not observed to he serious pest of cııltdvated plants. Eupteryx species are not included in this paper, because the content will exceed the limits of this periodlc. Therefore Eupteryx Sp3­ cies will ibe given in the tollowlng ıssue. Synonym:s, distribution of species in Palaearctic region are takeri from Nast (1972). Additional countrres are given with literature cita­ tions at the erıd. The authors would like to express their thanks to Dr. J. Dlabola, of National Museurn (Nat. Hist.) Prague, Czechoslovakia, for the iden­ tification of same species. Most of the species were identified by the authors by usirıg keys of Ribaut (1936) and Emelyanov (1964) Edwardsiana avellana (Edwards, 1888) Synonymy: Typhlocyba bidentata Edw., 1914.

Thesip~cies E. vitis in some earlier literatüre was given under the name of Empoasca flavescens F. 'I'heretore ıthe true Edward­ siana flavescens F. species is accepted to be recorded newly frem Turkey.
