Abstract

Due to the importation of lumber, timber, and wooden packaging materials via international ports, Kocaeli province is at risk of contamination of invasive forest pests, which is mentioned in the European and Mediterranean Plant Protection Organization (EPPO) alarm list. Fieldworks were carried out between March 2016 and October 2017 to determine the fauna of the family Cerambycidae (Coleoptera) in Kocaeli province. Species and specimen numbers were evaluated. Sixty-two species belonging to 39 genera were identified within 24 tribes, that classified under five subfamilies of Cerambycidae. Cerambycinae was the most represented subfamily with 30 species (634 specimens), and Prioninae was the least represented subfamily with three individuals in two species. Thirty of 62 species were the new records for Kocaeli province. Among them, Leptura aurulenta was reported for the second time in Turkey.

Özet

Kocaeli, uluslararası limanlardan giriş yapan kereste, tomruk ve ahşap ambalaj malzemeleriyle paketlenmiş ürünler nedeniyle Avrupa ve Akdeniz Bitki Koruma Örgütü (EPPO) alarm listesinde yer alan istilacı orman zararlılarının bulaşması riski altındadır. Bu durum göz önünde bulundurularak Mart 2016 - Ekim 2017 arasında arazi çalışmaları gerçekleştirilip, Kocaeli ili Cerambycidae (Coleoptera) familyası faunistik olarak değerlendirildi. Cerambycidae familyasından beş altfamilyanın 24 tribusu altında 39 cinse ait 62 tür teşhis edildi. Cerambycinae’nin 634 birey ve 30 türle en fazla, Prioninae’nin ise 3 birey ve 2 türle en az temsil edilen alt familya olduğu belirlendi. Tespit edilen 62 türün 30 tanesi Kocaeli için yeni kayıttır. Bunlar arasında, Leptura aurulenta türü Türkiye’de ikinci defa rapor edilmiştir.
