Abstract

The composition and seasonality of the populations of Drosophilidae (Diptera) species were evaluated, along with some other dipteran species, in three fruit orchards in Aydın Province. Bait traps with grape vinegar were used for collecting drosophilids from September 2018 to January 2020. The family Drosophilidae was represented by 11 species, and additionally, 10 other fly species from seven families were found in the same traps. The dominant drosophilid species was Drosophila subobscura Collin, 1936 among 1 964 individuals trapped in the three orchards, followed by Drosophila immigrans Sturtevant, 1921, Drosophila melanogaster Meigen, 1830, Zaprionus tuberculatus Malloch, 1932 and Drosophila suzukii Matsumura, 1931. The highest number of drosophilids were trapped in April 2019, 1 836 specimens in total. The population of drosophilids varied with season, with the first peak in April 2019 and the second in November-December in 2019. Drosophilids were trapped in low numbers during the summer months. As part of this study, Aulacigaster falcata Papp, 1997 (Diptera: Aulacigastridae) was recorded in Türkiye for the first time.

Özet

Bu çalışmada Aydın İli’ndeki üç meyve bahçesinde Drosophilidae (Diptera) familyası türlerinin belirlenmesi ve bunların mevsimsel yoğunluklarının araştırılması amaçlanmıştır. Aynı zamanda çalışmada saptanan diğer diptera türleri de incelenmiştir. Çalışmalar Eylül 2018-Ocak 2020 tarihleri arasında içerisinde üzüm sirkesi bulunan besin cezbedici tuzaklar kullanılarak yürütülmüştür. Çalışma sonunda, tuzaklarda 11 Drosophilidae türü ve ayrıca yedi familyadan 10 farklı sinek türü belirlenmiştir. Drosophilidae türlerinden Drosophila subobscura Collin, 1936 toplam 1 964 birey olarak çalışma bahçelerinde belirlenmiş ve en çok yakalanan tür olmuştur. Bunu sayısal olarak Drosophila immigrans Sturtevant, 1921, Drosophila melanogaster Meigen, 1830, Zaprionus tuberculatus Malloch, 1932 ve Drosophila suzukii Matsumura, 1931 izlemiştir. Bahçelerde en çok drosophilid 1 836 birey ile Nisan (2019) ayında elde edilmiştir. Drosophilid türleri sayısal olarak birlikte dikkate alındığında, mevsimsel dalgalanmalar göstermiş olup, bunlardan ilk tepe noktası Nisan (2019) ayında ve ikincisi Kasım-Aralık (2019) aylarında ortaya çıkmıştır. Ancak, drosophilid türleri yaz ayları süresince oldukça düşük sayılarda tuzaklara yakalanmıştır. Çalışmada saptanan Aulacigaster falcata Papp, 1997 (Diptera: Aulacigastridae) Türkiye faunası için ilk kayıt niteliğindedir.
