New contributions of the family Eucharitidae (Hymenoptera: Chalcidoidea) of Türkiye, with two new records

Öz

In this study, the species of the family Eucharitidae (Hymenoptera: Chalcidoidea) in Türkiye are reviewed. The adults belonging to Eucharitidae were collected from Bingöl and Diyarbakır provinces between 2021 and 2023. Two species, namely Eucharis (Psilogastrellus) acuminata Ruschka, 1924 and Eucharis (Psilogastrellus) affinis Bouček, 1956 are recorded for the first time from Türkiye. Separately, photographs of morphological features for the collected species are also provided, along with an identification key and the first checklist for Turkish Eucharitidae family.
