TEPECİK, Gamze; DURSUN, AHMET

Abstract

ABSTRACT: As a result of the evaluation of Miridae samples collected from Amasya Province in 2021 and 2022, 19 species belonging to 10 genera from 4 subfamilies were identified. 3 species of Bryocorinae, 5 species of Deraeocorinae, 4 species of Orthotylinae and 7 species of Phylinae subfamilies were recorded. Of those, 18 species are new records for the Amasya province. The first exact locality record for Deraeocoris punctum (Rambur, 1839) was given in this study, and this finding confirmed the presence of the species in Türkiye and its distribution in Asia. Halticus pusillus and Orthotylus moncreaffi are recorded for the first time in the Black Sea Region of Türkiye. Dicyphus hyalinipennis, Deraeocoris punctulatus, Halticus luteicollis, Campylomma verbasci, Orthonotus rufifrons, Plagiognathus chrysanthemi, Plagiognathus fulvipennis and Psallus varians were determined as new records for the Miridae fauna of the Central Black Sea Region. In addition to the Distributions of the Miridae species in Türkiye and in the Palearctic region, their chorotypes were also determined. According to the chorotypes analysis, the species of the Bryocorinae, Deraeocorinae, Ortho-tylinae and Phylinae subfamilies from Amasya are divided into 7 categories: as Holoarctic (31,57%), Turano-European (26,32 %), Europeo-Mediterranean (10,53 %), Mediterranean (10,53 %), West Palearctic (10,53 %), European (5,26 %) and Palearctic (5,26 %).

Journal of the Heteroptera of Turkey 288 J.Het.Turk., 7(2), Nov 2025 (eISSN 2687-3249) INTRODUCTION The suborder Heteroptera Latreille, 1810 classified under the order Hemiptera Linnaeus 1758, which includes terrestrial, aquatic, and semi-aquatic species exhibiting a wide variety of feeding habits, including phytophagous, zoophagous, zoophytophagous, mycophagous, and hematophagous, is very rich in species (Çerçi et al., 2024). The suborder Heteroptera currently comprises 45.000 described species in 24 superfamilies belonging to seven infraorders and is distributed across the world (Henry, 2017). There are numerous studies on the suborder Heteroptera in Türkiye, and as a result of these studies, the current number of species in the suborder Heteroptera has been determined to be 1639 (Çerçi et al., 2024; Yazıcı & Bal, 2025; Dursun & Fent, 2025). The Miridae family contains the richest species within the Heteroptera suborder. The family consists entirely of terrestrial species and has 11,500 species in 1,400 genera within eight subfamilies known in the Palearctic region (Kerzhner & Josifov, 1999; Henry, 2017). The largest number of species in the Turkish Heteroptera fauna belongs to the Miridae family. Based on a review of recent publications, 609 Miridae species have been recorded in Türkiye (Çerçi & Koçak, 2016; Çerçi et al. 2018; 2019; 2020; 2021; 2022; 2024; Tezcan, 2020; Yazıcı & Bal, 2025). Although the Bryocorinae, Deraeocorinae, Orthotylinae and Phylinae subfamilies are not particularly species-rich as the Mirinae subfamily, several members exhibit remarkably broad distributions. As a result of the studies conducted with the Miridae family in Türkiye, Bryocorinae subfamily by 24 species belonging to 6 genera, Deraecorinae subfamily by 20 species belonging to 5 genera, Orthotylinae subfamily by 115 species belonging to 31 genera and Phylinae by 200 species belonging to 79 genera (Çerçi et al., 2024). The subfamilies Bryocorinae and Deraeocorinae, within the family Miridae, include phytophagous, zoophytophagous, and carnivorous species. The species of Bryocorinae and Deraeocorine, especially Dicyphini (Bryocorinae) tribe members, are very important as biological control agents in agriculture and forest ecosystems. The species of the Deraeocorinae subfamily is primarily predatory but may also feed on stinging nettles. In case of lack of prey insects, they can also attack other predators and cannibalism is observed (Sanchez & Cassis, 2018). Önder and Lodos (1987) reported that all individuals of the subfamily Deraeocorinae found in Türkiye are predators. They generally attack non-chitinous soft-bodied insects. They feed on adults and nymphs of aphids (Hemiptera: Aphididae) and leafhoppers (Hemiptera: Psyllidae), immature Lepidopteran larvae, and mites (Arachnida). They also have a wide variety of plant preferences (Yazıcı, 2015). Due to its location in the Black Sea Region, Amasya is known to have rich flora and fauna (Dursun, 2011). Until this study, there had been no specific studies of the Bryocorinae, Deraeocorinae, Orthotylinae and Phylinae subfamilies in Amasya province. This study aimed to investigate the Bryocorinae, Deraeocorinae, Orthotylinae and Phylinae subfamilies fauna of the area in detail, and with the findings obtained, contribute to future studies. In the present study, the Bryocorinae, Deraeocorinae, Orthotylinae and Phylinae subfamilies of the Miridae family fauna of Amasya province, new additional records and chorotypical information for taxa are presented. MATERIAL AND METHODS The specimens of Bryocorinae, Deraeocorinae, Orthotylinae and Phylinae subfamilies (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Miridae) were collected from herbaceous vegetation and Journal of the Heteroptera of Turkey 289 J.Het.Turk., 7(2), Nov 2025 (eISSN 2687-3249) above ground with a sweep net and from trees with a Japanese umbrella from 38 localities with different vegetation and habitat in Amasya province in the years from 2021 to 2022 (Fig. 1). Research material were put in tubes in 70% ethanol and brought to the laboratory. In the laboratory, specimens were softened in hot water (80°C-100°C) for preparation of the male genitalia, which was used for further identifications. The specimens were prepared and identified using the relevant diagnostic were investigated under a stereomicroscope (Leica EZ4) and keys of Stichel (1957-1962) and Wagner (1970/71). In determining the Chorotypes of the species, Vigna Taglianti et al. (1999) were used. The material is deposited in the collection of Amasya University, School of Technical Sciences, Department of Health Information Systems (Amasya, Turkiye). Figure 1.
