The First Record of Paropta paradoxus (Herrich-Schäffer, 1851) (Lepidoptera: Cossidae) in Hatay Province of Turkey and Its External and Genital Morphology
Abstract
Abstract: This study was conducted as field and laboratory studies. The grapevines that show sign of damage were collected from Reyhanlı and Kırıkhan districts in Hatay then brought to the laboratory. The larvae in the grapevine were obtained mature individuals by taking culture in the laboratory. A total of 3 male Paropta paradoxus (Cossidae) emerged from the pupa. Specimens were dissected in the laboratory and prepared male genitalia and wings slides. We described the external and male genital morphology of P. paradoxus in detail and also diagnostical morphological features. As a result of the study, P. paradoxus is first record for Hatay.

Hatay’da Paropta paradoxus (Herrich-Schäffer, 1851) (Lepidoptera: Cossidae)’un İlk Kaydı ve Türün Dış ve Genital Morfolojisi
Öz: Bu çalışma arazi ve laboratuvar çalışmaları şeklinde yürütülmüştür. Hatay'da Reyhanlı ve Kırıkhan ilçelerindeki üzüm (bağ) bahçelerinde zarar belirtisi gösteren asma dalları toplanarak laboratuvara getirilmiştir. Asma dalları içerisindeki larvalar laboratuvarda kültüre alınarak ergin bireyler elde edilmiştir. Toplam 3 adet erkek Paropta paradoxus (Cossidae) pupadan çıkmıştır. Örneklerden erkek genital organı ve ön ve arka kanat preparatları yapıldı. P. paradoxus’un dış morfolojisi ve erkek genital organları ayrıntılı olarak tanımlandı.
