Detection of harmful Curculionoidea (Insecta: Coleoptera) species in stone fruit trees of Kahramanmaraş, Adıyaman, Gaziantep provinces (Türkiye)

Abstract

In this study, Curculionoidea (Insecta: Coleoptera) species were determined in Kahramanmaraş, Adıyaman and Gaziantep provinces 2022, in almond (Amygdalus communis L.), apricot (Prunus armenica L.), cherry (Prunus avium L.), sour cherry (Prunus cerasus L.), peach (Prunus persica L.), plum (Prunus domestica L.) trees. Visual inspection method, shoot removal method and impact method were applied to determine the species. Surveys were carried out weekly (once a week for the specified provinces) from the beginning of March to the end of October, considering the flowering periods of fruit trees. Based on the results, two species from Curculionoidea superfamily to the Rhynchitidae family; Tatianaerhynchites aequatus (Linnaeus, 1767), Epihynchites (Colonnellinius) smyrnensis (Desbrochers des Loges, 1869) and 11 species belonging to the Curculionidae family; Anthonomus (Anthonomus) pyri Boheman, 1843, Tychius (Tychius) picirostris (Fabricius, 1787), Tychius (Tychius) breviusculus Desbrochers, 1873, Smicronyx (Smicronyx) jungermanniae Reich, 1797, Ceutorhynchus assimilis Paykull, 1792, Ceutorhynchus picitarsis Gyllenhal, 1837, Lixus (Dilixellus) vilis (Rossi, 1790), Polydrusus (Eustolus) ponticus Faust, 1888, Sitona macularius (Marsham, 1802), Sitona lineellus (Bonsdorff 1785), Myllocerus damascenus Miller, 1861 a total of 13 species were identified. Among these species, S. lineellus, C. assimilis, A. pyri, T. picirostris, T. breviusculus, T. aequatus were determined to be the first record for Kahramanmaraş province, T. aequatus, A. pyri, T. picirostris, T. breviusculus, S. jungermanniae were determined to be the first record for Gaziantep province and A. pyri, T. picirostris, T. breviusculus, S. jungermanniae, L. vilis were determined to be the first record for Adıyaman province.
