Örnekler, stereo mikroskop altında incelenerek teşhisleri yapılmıştır. Sonuç olarak, Syrphinae’den 10 tür, Eristalinae’den 13 tür olmak üzere toplam 14 cins ve 23 tür tespit edilmiştir: Cheilosia antiqua (Meigen, 1822), Chrysogaster basalis Loew, 1857, Episyrphus balteatus (De Geer, 1776), Eristalinus sepulchralis (Linnaeus, 1758), Eristalinus megacephalus (Rossi, 1794), Eristalinus taeniops (Wiedemann, 1818), Eristalis arbustorum (Latreille, 1758), Eristalis tenax (Linnaeus, 1758), Eumerus amoenus Loew, 1848, Eupeodes corollae (Fabricius, 1794), Eupeodes luniger (Meigen, 1822), Lejogaster tarsata (Meigen, 1822), Melanostoma mellinum (Linnaeus, 1758), Merodon velox Loew, 1869, Neoascia podagrica (Fabricius, 1775), Neoascia tenur (Harris, 1780), Paragus bicolor (Fabricius, 1794), Paragus haemorrhous Meigen, 1822, Paragus pecchiolii Rondani, 1857, Paragus tibialis (Fallen, 1817), Sphaerophoria rueppelli (Wiedemann, 1830), Sphaerophoria scripta (Linnaeus, 1758) ve Syritta pipiens (Linnaeus, 1758). Ayrıca tespit edilen türlerin palearktik ve Türkiye’deki yayılışları verilmiştir.

Abstract

This study is based on Syrphidae specimens collected from Şirvan district of Siirt province. Specimens were collected from different locations using sweep net. The specimens were examined under stereo microscope and species identifications were made. A total of 14 genera and 23 species, including 10 species from Syrphinae and 13 species from Eristalinae were identified: Cheilosia antiqua (Meigen, 1822), Chrysogaster basalis Loew, 1857, Episyrphus balteatus (De Geer, 1776), Eristalinus sepulchralis (Linnaeus, 1758), Eristalinus megacephalus (Rossi, 1794), Eristalinus taeniops (Wiedemann, 1818), Eristalis arbustorum (Latreille, 1758), Eristalis tenax (Linnaeus, 1758), Eumerus amoenus Loew, 1848, Eupeodes corollae (Fabricius, 1794), Eupeodes luniger (Meigen, 1822), Lejogaster tarsata (Meigen, 1822) ; Soos ve Papp, 1988), Melanostoma mellinum (Linnaeus, 1758), Merodon velox Loew, 1869, Neoascia podagrica (Fabricius, 1775), Neoascia tenur (Harris, 1780), Paragus bicolor (Fabricius, 1794), Paragus haemorrhous Meigen, 1822, Paragus pecchiolii Rondani, 1857, Paragus tibialis (Fallen, 1817), Sphaerophoria rueppelli (Wiedemann, 1830), Sphaerophoria scripta (Linnaeus, 1758) and Syritta pipiens (Linnaeus, 1758). In addition, the distribution of the identified species in the Palaearctic and in Türkiye are given.
