This study was carried out to determine the leaf-beetles (Coleoptera, Chrysomelidae) which causes extensive damage on weeds in the vicinity of Tokat, Turkey. Total 9 taxa including 4 species of Chrysomelinae, 1 species of Clytrinae, 1 species of Criocerinae, 2 species of Alticinae and 1 species of Cassidinae were found to be destructive on different weed species. These species were; Entomoscelis adonidis (Pall.) on Sinapis arvensis L., Gastrophysa polygoni (L.) on Polygonum convolvulus L. and Rumex sp., Chrysolina herbacea (Duft.) on Mentha spicata L., Phaedon cochleariae (F.) on Nasturtium officinale L., Clytra novempunctata Oliv. on P. convolvulus L., Crioceris duodecimpunctata (L.) on Bryonia alba L., Chaetocnema tibialis (Ill.) on Chenopodium album L., Altica oleracea (L.) on Sangiosorba minor Scop. and Geranium dissectum L., Cassida nebulosa L. on C. album.
Bu çalışmada, Tokat ilinde yabancı otlar üzerinde beslenerek önemli derecede zarar veren yaprak böceklerinin (Coleoptera, Chrysomelidae) tespiti amaçlanmıştır. Bu amaçla yapılan çalışmada Chrysomelidae familyasına bağlı altfamilyalardan, Chrysomelinae’ den 4, Clytrinae’ den 1, Criocerinae’ den 1, Alticinae’ den 2 ve Cassidinae’ den 1 olmak üzere toplam 9 tür tespit edilmiştir. Bu türlerden Entomoscelis adonidis (Pall.) ‘ın Sinapis arvensis L., Gastrophysa polygoni (L.)’ nin Polygonum convolvulus L. ve Rumex sp., Chrysolina herbacea (Duft.)’ nin Mentha spicata L., Phaedon cochleariae (F.)’ nin Nasturtium officinale L., Clytra novempunctata Oliv.’ nın P. convolvulus L., Crioceris duodecimpunctata (L.)’ nın Bryonia alba L., Chaetocnema tibialis (Ill.)’ in Chenopodium album L., Altica oleracea (L.)’ nın Sangiosorba minor Scop. ve Geranium dissectum L., Cassida nebulosa L.’ nın C. album üzerinde beslenerek zarar verdikleri tespit edilmiştir.
