Specimens were collected from host plants using an insect net. During this study, 42 species belonging to 13 genera from 3 subfamilies were determined in this region. Urophora tenuis Becker, 1908 is recorded for the first time from Turkey. In addition, zoogeographic distribution and wing figures of all species are given. Key words: Tephritidae, fauna, Adıyaman, Kilis, Şanlıurfa, Turkey 1. Introduction 2. Materials and methods Fruit flies are high profile insects among commercial fruit Adult specimens were collected from host plants using and vegetable growers, marketers, exporters, government an insect net in various locations of Adıyaman, Kilis, regulatory agencies, and the scientific community. Locally, and Şanlıurfa provinces during 2009 and 2010. Species producers face huge losses without some management were identified using the keys of Freidberg and Kugler scheme to control fruit fly populations. At the national (1989), Merz (1994) Korneyev and White (1999), and Kütük (2003a). The terminology primarily follows that of and international levels, plant protection agencies strictly White et al. (2000). Specimens are deposited at the insect regulate the movement of potentially infested products museum of Gaziantep University. (McPheron and Steck, 1996). Some species of Tephritidae infest the flower heads of Asteraceae host plants, 3. Results collectively belonging to several tribes, with or without the In this study, 42 species belonging to 13 genera in 3 induction of galls (Freidberg, 1984). subfamilies were determined from Adıyaman, Kilis, and Faunistic studies on the tephritid fly fauna in Turkey Şanlıurfa provinces: Acanthiophilus helianthi (Rossi), began with Giray (1966). Kütük (1998) reported 21 species Campiglossa producta (Loew), Capitetes ramulosa (Loew), from Malatya province in his MSc thesis. Kütük (2003a) Chaetorellia jaceae (Rob-Des), Chaetorellia succinea reported 62 species from the southwestern Anatolian (Costa), Chaetostomella cylindrica (Rob-Des), Goniurellia region. Kütük (2003b) reported 17 species of Urophora Rob- longicauda Freidberg, Sphenella marginata (Fallen), Des (Diptera: Tephritidae) from the Eastern Mediterranean Tephritis acanthiophilopsis Hering, T. divisa Rondani, region of Turkey. Kütük (2006b) determined 22 species T. hurvitzi Freidberg, T. merzi Freidberg-Kütük, T. nigricauda (Loew), T. postica (Loew), T. praecox (Loew), of Tephritis Latreille (Diptera: Tephritidae) from Turkey. T. simplex (Loew), Tephritomyia lauta (Loew), Terellia Kütük (2008) reported 39 species of fruit flies from Kayseri colon (Meigen), T. gynaecochroma (Hering), T. longicauda and Sivas provinces. Kütük and Yaran (2011) reported 15 (Meigen), T. nigripalpis (Hendel), T. serratulae (Linnaeus), species of Terellia Rob-Des (Diptera: Tephritidae) from T. virens (Loew), Trupanea amoena (Frauenfeld), T. stellata Turkey. Görmez (2011) reported 115 species of fruit flies (Fuesslin), Urophora affinis (Frauenfeld), U. aprica (Fallen), from Turkey. Kütük et al. (2011, 2012) described Terellia U. congrua Loew, U. cuspidata (Meigen), U. doganlari askaleensis Kütük and Tephritis ozaslani Kütük. Thus, 117 Kütük, U. jaceana (Hering), U. mauritanica Macquart, U. species of fruit flies are known to date from Turkey. notata Belanovskij, U. phaeocera (Hering), U. phalolepidis * Correspondence: [email protected] 38 KÜTÜK et al. / Turk J Zool Merz-White, U. quadrifasciata (Meigen), U. solstitialis 38°47′E, 931 m, 05.06.2010, 3 ♂♂; Besni, 37°38′N, 37°52′E, (Linnaeus), U. stylata (Fabricius), U. tenuior (Hendel), U. 791 m, 29.06.2010, 1 ♂; Kilis, Elbeyli, 36°40′N, 37°27′E, 516 tenuis Becker, U. terebrans (Loew), and Xyphosia miliaria m, 11.06.2010, 2 ♂♂; Şanlıurfa, Hilvan, 37°22′N, 38°34′E, (Schrank). 569 m, 13.05.2010, 1 ♀; Bozova, 37°19′N, 38°34′E, 715 m, Urophora tenuis Becker, 1908 is recorded for the first 23.04.2010, 2 ♂♂; Bozova, Arıkök, 37°23′N, 38°26′E, 566 time from Turkey.
