Abstract

Faunistic data are given for 5 species of Dolichopodidae, new to the fauna of Turkey and collected in the Marmara and Eagen regions. The following species are recorded for first time in Turkey Chrysotimus molliculus (Fallén, 1823), Hercostomus libanicola Parent, 1933, Neurigona erichsoni (Zedderstedt, 1843), Teuchophorus cristulatus Meuffels & Grootaert, 1992, Teuchophorus bisetus Loew, 1871. As a result, 104 Dolichopodidae species are known for Turkey at the present. The locations of 5 new collection sites from Turkey are mapped.
