Abstract

With this study, brief information about the new distribution area and economic importance of the Alphitophagus bifasciatus (Say, 1823) (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae) is given. It has been found in cereals, oilseeds, and in their products such as copra, cocoa, nuts, feed, dried fruit, herbs, and spices in previous years. It is possible in the following years that it will be characterized as potentially harmful by causing economic damage in the paddy fields in the Eastern and Southeastern Anatolia Regions of Turkey. Determining the specimen in this region is important in terms of faunistic and economic entomology in order to investigate the agricultural control management in the countries where it is pest related to the species and to reveal the plant protection strategy.

Özet

Bu çalışmayla; Alphitophagus bifasciatus (Say, 1823) (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae)’un dağılış alanı ve ekonomik önemi ile ilgili kısa bilgiler sunulmaktadır. Tür; daha önceki yıllarda tahıllar, yağlı tohumlar ve bunların ürünleri olan kopra, kakao, kuruyemiş, yem, kuru meyve, otlar ve baharatlar gibi ürünlerde bulunmuştur. Türün ileriki yıllarda, Doğu ve Güneydoğu Anadolu Bölgelerinde pirinç ekiliş alanlarında ekonomik önemde zarar oluşturarak potansiyel zararlı konumuna geçmesi muhtemeldir. Türün bu bölgede belirlenmesi; tür ile ilgili zararlı olduğu ülkelerde tarımsal mücadele yönetiminin araştırılması ve bitki koruma stratejisinin ortaya çıkarılması açısından faunistik ve ekonomik entomoloji açısından önemlidir.
