The comparative studies of longhorned beetles fauna on the subfamilies Dorcadioninae and Lamiinae in Düzce and Kırıkkale proviences

In this study, insect samples that were members of Cerambycidae family were evaluated with respect to their faunistic, taxonomic and systematic aspects collected from various districts in Kırıkkale and Düzce between April and September in the year of 2011.Insect samples were collected from different regions of Kırıkkale province. In total, 223 samples are collected in which 7 of them belong to Dorcadioninae subfamily and 215 of them belong to Lamiinae subfamily. As a result of identification of these samples, 1 sample belongs to subfamily Dorcadioninae and 16 samples belong to subfamily Lamiinae were determined. In Kırıkkale region, 16 new Lamiinae species are recorded for the first time. [Oxylia duponcheli (Brullé, 1832:260), Phytoecia scutellata (Fabricius, 1792:317), Phytoecia humeralis (Waltl, 1838:471), Phytoecia caerulea caerulea (Scopoli, 1772:102), Phytoecia cylindrica (Linnaeus, 1758:394), Phytoecia geniculata Mulsant, 1862:420, Phytoecia manicata Reiche ve Saulcy, 1858:17, Phytoecia pustulata (Schrank, 1776:66), Phytoecia rufipes (Olivier, 1795: 25), Phytoecia virgula (Charpentier, 1825:225), Phytoecia coerulescens (Scopoli, 1763:49), Agapanthia kirbyi (Gyllenhal, 1817:186), Agapanthia lateralis Ganglbauer, 1884:541, Agapanthia cardui (Linnaeus, 1767:632), Agapanthia suturalis(Fabricius, 1787:149), Agapanthia violacea (Fabricius, 1775:187)]. Thus, species that consist of regional fauna have increased 8 fold of known. In addition, 4 dominant chorotypes are determined in terms of zoogeography from the research area. According to this, the fauna of this region exhibits mainly the Turano-Europe elements. Besides, Turano-Mediterranean, East-Mediterranean and Sibiria-Europe species contribute to the fauna significantly.The numbers of collected insect samples from various regions of Düzce province are 81 which include 10 members of Dorcadioninae subfamily and 71 members of Lamiinae subfamily. As a result of identifications of them, it was determined that they are the member of 2 subfamily which consist 8 types and 17 species. Among these species, 11 of them are recorded for the first time. (From Dorcadioninae subfamily: 3 species which are Dorcadion rufoapicale, Dorcadion septemlineatum ve Dorcadion triste; from Lamiinae subfamily: 8 species which are Mesosa curculionoides, Morimus orientalis, Acanthocinus aedilis, Oberea linearis, Phytoecia cylindrica, Phytoecia icterica, Phytoecia coerulescens ve Agapanthia villosoviridescens).Key Words : Cerambycidae, Kırıkkale-Düzce, Fauna, Zoogeography.
