New and additional records of Cryptinae and Phygadeuontinae (Hymenoptera: Ichneumonidae) Ağrı province and Mount Ararat in Türkiye

Abstract

The study was conducted to detect the Cryptinae and Phygadeuontinae (Ichneumonidae) species of Ağrı province and Mount Ararat between 2022 and 2023. Adult samples were collected in the different habitats and altitudes using sweeping nets. The specimens were then pinned and properly labelled for identification. New faunistic data for ten species are provided. Enclisis vindex (Tschek, 1871), and Endasys analis (Thomson, 1883) are recorded for the first time from Türkiye. Also, present Gelis vicinus (Gravenhorst, 1829) and Phygadeuon hercynicus Gravenhorst, 1829 are new for East Anatolia. Additionally, collecting locality, date, altitude individual and sex counts, hosts, associated plants, distribution in Türkiye and general geographic distribution of the species are given.
