Abstract

In order to determine Braconidae fauna of Turkey, adult specimens of Braconidae (Hymenoptera) are collected from different habitats of Bingöl, Bitlis, Muş and Van provinces with using Malaise and light traps and sweeping nets between 2015 and 2019. The collected materials are prepared and labelled. In addition, appropriated literature are used for taxonomical examination of the obtained material. The altitudes and coordinates of localities and collection dates are presented. A total of 3 species in 2 genera of Brachistini are determined. From these species Foersteria polonoca Fahringer, 1934 is firstly record in the fauna of Turkey. However, Schizoprymnus (Schizoprymnus) bidentulus (Szépligeti, 1901) and S.(S.) elongatus (Szépligeti,1898) have been discovered. These two species are for the first records in the research area.
