The New Locations for Some Wasp Families in Türkiye

Abstract

The present paper is based on the material of the seven families Bembicidae, Crabronidae, Pemphredonidae, Philanthidae, Pompilidae, Sphecidae, and Vespidae collected between 2017 and 2024 in various localities of Bingöl, Çanakkale, and Diyarbakır provinces, Türkiye. In total, 36 species belonging to 26 genera and seven families are recorded: Bembicidae (three genera, four species), Crabronidae (six genera, eight species), Pemphredonidae (two genera, three species), Philanthidae (one genus, one species), Pompilidae (eight genera, 12 species), Sphecidae (five genera, seven species), and Vespidae (one genera, one species). Furthermore, new locality records and distributional data for identified species are provided.
