Cynipid Galls (Hymenoptera: Cynipidae) on Roots of Quercus infectoria Oliv.: Two new records from Turkey

Öz

In recent years, new cynipid species have been described and new records were provided in Turkey where is the most species-rich region in the Western Palearctic region. In this study, some cynipid galls were collected from roots (close to the surface) or branches below the soil surface of the host oak (Andricus csokai, A. quercusradicis, A. rhyzomae, A. schoenroggei, A. stonei). A. rhyzomae and A. schoenroggei among these species are new records for the cynipid (Hymenoptera: Cynipidae) fauna of Turkey. In addition, a new host oak was recorded for A. quercusradicis and A. rhyzomae. Also, the first location record of A. stonei was provided with this study although the species previously is known from Turkey. With this study, these five species were reported for the first time for the study area (Afyonkarahisar).

Quercus infectoria Oliv. (Mazı Meşesi) köklerinde oluşan mazılar (Hymenoptera: Cynipidae): İki yeni kayıt

Öz

Batı Palearktik bölge içerisinde mazı arıları çeşitliliği açısından zengin olan Türkiye coğrafyasında son yıllarda yeni türler tanımlanmış ve yeni kayıtlar verilmiştir. Bu çalışmada ise konukçu meşenin köklerinde ve/veya genç toprakaltı dallarında mazı oluşturan bazı türler (Andricus csokai, A. quercusradicis, A. rhyzomae, A. schoenroggei, A. stonei) tespit edilmiştir. Mazı meşesi (Q. infectoria) üzerinden toplanan mazılar içerisinden, A. rhyzomae ve A. schoenroggei türleri Türkiye mazı arıları (Hymenoptera: Cynipidae) faunası için yeni kayıt olarak verilmektedir. Bunun yanı sıra, A. quercusradicis ve A. rhyzomae türleri için yeni bir konukçu meşe kaydı verilirken, A. stonei türünün ise daha önceden Türkiye’den kaydı bilinmesine rağmen ilk kez bu çalışmayla lokasyon kaydı sağlanmaktadır. Tespit edilen beş türün araştırma bölgesindeki (Afyonkarahisar) yayılışı ilk kez yine bu çalışmayla bildirilmektedir.
