Abstract

This research was carried out in pomegranate (Punicae granatum L.) and olive (Olea europaea L.) orchards in the Eastern Mediterranean (Adana, Mersin and Osmaniye provinces) in 2008-2010 in order to determine the spider fauna. In this study, among the 402 individuals (male, female, nimf) collected, 59 species belonging to 51 genera and 17 families were reported at 16 different localities with more spiders in the pomegranate and olive orchards in these regions. Among this species, Theridion hemerobium (Simon, 1914), Aphantaulax cincta (L. Koch, 1866) and Platnickina nigropunctata (Lucas, 1846) are new records for the araneo-fauna of Turkey. This study was the first on spider fauna in pomegranate and olive orchards in Turkey.

Abstract

Bu çalışma; 2008-2010 yıllarında Doğu Akdeniz Bölgesi (Adana, Mersin ve Osmaniye İlleri) nar (Punicae granatum L.) ve zeytin (Olea europaea L.) bahçelerindeki mevcut örümcek faunasını belirlemek için yürütülmüştür. Çalışmada; Doğu Akdeniz Bölgesi nar ve zeytin bahçelerine ait 16 farklı lokasyondan 17 familya, 51 cins ve 59 türe ait 402 birey ( erkek, dişi, nimf) toplanmıştır. Bu türlerden, Theridion hemerobium (Simon, 1914), Aphantaulax cincta (L. Koch, 1866) ve Platnickina nigropunctata (Lucas, 1846)’nın Türkiye örümcek faunası için yeni kayıt niteliğinde oldukları saptanmıştır. Bu çalışma, Türkiye nar ve zeytin bahçelerindeki örümcek faunası üzerinde yapılmış ilk çalışmadır.
