Forty-eight species in 23 genera of Aphididae were detected. <i>Aphis craccivora </i> Koch, 1854, <i>Cinara </i> ( <i>Cupressobium </i>) <i>tujafilina </i> (Del Guercio, 1909) and <i>Macrosiphum rosae </i> (L., 1758) were most abundant species. <i>Aphis berberidorum </i>Ortego & Mier Durante, 1997, <i>Hannabura alnicola </i> Matsumura, 1917 and <i>Prociphilus fraxinifolii </i> (Riley, 1879) were three new records for the aphid fauna of Turkey. The genus <i>Hannabura </i> was recorded for the first time in Turkey. Twenty-nine insect predators of aphids were identified from Coccinellidae (24), Cantharidae (1) (Coleoptera), Nabidae (1), Miridae (1) (Hemiptera), Sryphidae (1) (Diptera) and Forficulidae (1) (Dermaptera). No predators were seen on 12 aphid species and just a single predator each for 11 aphid species. The highest host plant diversity was observed for <i>A. craccivora </i> and <i>Aulacorthum solani </i>(Kaltenbach, 1843), with three plant species each. The highest number of aphid species (8 species) was found on <i>Pinus nigra </i> subsp. <i>pallasiana </i> (Lamb.) Holmboe.}, number={3}, publisher={Türkiye Entomoloji Derneği}
