Abstract

This study was performed to determine the predatory
insects associated with Rosaceae species. Field surveys were carried out in
March-June 2013 in Edirne province (Trakya University Arboretum) of European
Turkey. Predatory insects were observed and collected in different stages of
their life cycles, and larval-pupal samples were reared in laboratory
conditions. As a result of this study, predatory insect species which are
inhabitants of the Rosaceae species to provide their preys were recorded and 11
predatory insects belonging to 6 families (Chrysopidae, Coccinellidae,
Formicidae, Geocoridae, Pentatomidae, Syrphidae) were determined on 5 Rosaceae
species. The observations and short information about the recorded species were
also presented.

Edirne Civarinda (Trakya Üniversitesi Arboretumu) Bazı Rosaceae Bitkileri ile Birlikteliğe Sahip Predatör Böcek Türleri

Abstract

Rosaceae
türleri ile etkileşime sahip predatör böcek türlerini belirlemek amacıyla, 2013
yılı Mart-Haziran periyodunda, Trakya Bölgesi sınırları içinde yer alan Edirne
ilinde (Trakya Üniversitesi Arboretumu) arazi çalışması ve toplanan örneklerle
ilgili olarak laboratuar çalışması yapılmıştır. Arazi çalışması sırasında
predatör böcekler çeşitli yaşam evrelerinde gözlemlenmiş ve toplanmıştır.
Toplanan örneklerden larva/pupa aşamasında olanlar laboratuar şartlarında
yetiştirilmiştir. Çalışma sonucunda alanda bulunan Rosaceae türleri üzerinde
konaklayan ve besinini sağlayan predatör böcekler tanımlanarak belirlenmiş ve 5
bitki türü üzerinde, 6 familyaya ait 11 predatör böcek türü (Chrysopidae,
Coccinellidae, Formicidae, Geocoridae, Pentatomidae, Syrphidae) kaydedilmiştir.
Tespit edilen türler hakkında yapılan gözlemler ve kısa literatür bilgileri de
belirtilmiştir.
