BARTIN İLİ CARABINAE VE HARPALINAE (CARABIDAE: COLEOPTERA) FAUNASINA KATKILAR

Abstract

Bu çalışma 2022-2023 yılları arasında Bartın yöresindeki orman alanlarında Carabinae ve Harpalinae (Carabidae: Coleoptera) alt familyalarının tür ve alttürlerini belirlemek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Araştırma bulgularına göre Carabinae alt familyasına ait iki cins ve 10 alttür (Carabus (Lamprostus) erenleriensis bithynicus Heinz & Korge, 1967, Carabus (Lamprostus) erenleriensis ahmetustaensis Cavazzuti, 1987, Carabus (Lamprostus) torosus xanthicus Darge, 1992, Carabus (Oxycarabus) saphyrinus mengenensis Blumenthal & Breuning, 1967, Carabus (Oxycarabus) saphyrinus yenicensis Lassalle, 1998, Carabus (Procerus) scabrosus mentor Blumenthal & Breuning, 1967, Carabus (Procrustes) chevrolati internatus Heinz & Korge, 1964, Carabus (Procrustes) chevrolati persimilis Csiki, 1927, Carabus (Tomocarabus) convexus erzeliki Schweiger, 1962, Cychrus anatolicus ponticus Schweiger, 1962) ve Harpalinae alt familyasına ait ise üç cins ve üç tür (Anisodactylus poeciloides Stephens, 1828, Bradycellus verbasci Duftschmid, 1812, Parophonus (Parophonus) mendax P. Rossi, 1790) tespit edilmiştir. Bu tür ve alttürlerin tamamı Bartın ili için yeni kayıttır.

The Carabidae family, known as ground beetles, constitutes the largest family of the order Coleoptera in terms of species diversity. This family has carnivorous, omnivorous or herbivorous members. Carnivorous ones are used successfully in biological control against some harmful insects such as pine processionary moth. For this reason, they are also considered beneficial insects. Harpalinae and Carabinae subfamilies belong to Carabidae family. The Harpalinae is one of the largest subfamilies of carabids. The species of the Carabinae subfamily can be seen on all continents except Antarctica. The research was conducted because samples of these subfamilies were found in the surveys carried out in Bartın province, and the first study was carried out between 2014-2016. Hand picking and pitfall trap methods were used to collect the species in this research (Toper Kaygın & Kara, 2018). As a result of the study, six genus, 16 species and one subspecies belonging to the Harpalinae subfamily, and two species and four different subspecies of a genus belonging to the Carabinae subfamily were identified. This study was carried out in the same region between 2022-2023, and insects were collected by pitfall trap, hand picking and light trap methods. Three species of three genera belonging to the subfamily Harpalinae (Anisodactylus poeciloides Stephens, 1828, Bradycellus verbasci Duftschmid, 1812, Parophonus (Parophonus) mendax P. Rossi, 1790) have been identified. There are ten subspecies belonging to two genera from the subfamily Carabinae (Carabus (Lamprostus) erenleriensis bithynicus Heinz & Korge, 1967; Carabus (Lamprostus) erenleriensis ahmetustaensis Cavazzuti, 1987; Carabus (Lamprostus) torosus xanthicus Darge, 1992; Carabus (Oxycarabus) saphyrinus mengenensis Blumenthal & Breuning, 1967; Carabus (Oxycarabus) saphyrinus yenicensis Lassalle, 1998; Carabus (Procerus) scabrosus mentor Blumenthal & Breuning, 1967, Carabus (Procrustes) chevrolati internatus Heinz & Korge, 1964, Carabus (Procrustes) chevrolati persimilis Csiki, 1927; Carabus (Tomocarabus) convexus erzeliki Schweiger, 1962; Cychrus anatolicus ponticus Schweiger, 1962) were recorded. All of these identified species and subspecies are the first record for the Carabinae and Harpalinae subfamilies fauna of Bartin province. Therefore, this research makes important contributions to the biodiversity of forests in Bartin province.
