New Records for Turkish Cicindelinae (Cicindelidae) and Lebiinae (Carabidae) Fauna

Abstract

This study includes the species of Cicindelinae and Lebiinae subfamilies belonging to the families of Cicindelidae and Carabidae collected from Bartin province between 2014 and 2016. Insect specimens belonging to these subfamilies were collected through hand picking method. At the end of the study, 1 species and 1 subspecies belonging to 1 genus of Cicindelinae subfamily (Cicindela (Cicindela) campestris Linnaeus, 1758, Cicindela (Cicindela) hybrida hybrida Linnaeus, 1758), and 2 genera and 2 species belonging to Lebiinae subfamily (Lebia (Lamprias) chlorocephala Hoffmannsegg, 1803 and Paradromius (Manodromius) linearis Olivier, 1795) were determined in Bartin province. These species were recorded as new species for Bartin’s fauna. In addition, C. (C.) hybrida hybrida subspecies and L. (L.) chlorocephala species were recorded first time for Turkish fauna.
