Ichneumonidae (Hymenoptera) from Anatolia. II. Introduction Parasitic hymenoptera, a big insect group having a wide significance in terrestrial ecosystems (Shaw & Hochberg, 2001), constitute a specialized group of Hymenoptera, one of the mega insect orders (Stevens et al., 2007). Ichneumonidae is the biggest hymenopteran family including 1579 genera and 24,281 described species (Yu et al., 2012). The family is renowned as one of the most diverse animal group (Grissell, 1999). Townes (1969) estimated that there could be about 60,000 ichneumonid species in the world, whilst Gauld (1997) revised this figure upwards to potentially more than 100,000 species. Common hosts are larvae and pupae of Coleoptera, Hymenoptera, and Lepidoptera. The Ichneumonidae with regards to there functions in ecosystem is considered important. In recent years they have been used successfully as biocontrol agents..there is surely a huge potential for their utilization in managed biocontrol programmes (Gupta, 1991). However, despite of their abundance and ecological importance, the Ichneumonidae remain relatively to be poorly investigated (Shaw & Hochberg 2001). Number of species Ichneumonidae in Turkey was recorded 1056 in Taxapad (Yu et al., 2012). In term of present studies on the Ichneumonidae, we found several species so far unknown in Turkey. With the below mentioned contributions (Özgen et al., 2010; Okyar et al., 2012; Çoruh & Özbek 2013; Çoruh & Kolarov, 2013; Çoruh et al., 2013; Çoruh et al., 2014a,b; Riedel et al., 2014; Kolarov et al., 2014a,b) the numbers of Ichneumonidae fauna of Turkey reached to about 1112 species. With our new records presented here, the total number of species recorded from Turkey are now 1122. For each species we present a zoogeographic characterization following Taglianti et al. (1999). This study is based upon material of family Ichneumonidae collected from different localities of Anatolia in Turkey in 2013. The aim of this study was to present the complete records of preserved material in order to improve knowledge about diversity of this important group in Turkey Material and Methods The samples were collected by insect net on different flowering plants in the Erzurum and in East Black Sea Coast provinces Rize, Trabzon, Giresun, Ordu (Fig. 1) during June, 2013. Collected samples were transferred into a handmade aspirator and were killed with ethyl acetate. Conventional standard method was used for preparation of the samples. Materials are preserved in Collection of University of (Bulgaria) for the present. The Plant species that visited by Ichneumonid species were collected by hand, pressed and deposited in Herbarium section of Plant Protection Department (Erzurum). Plant specimens were identified according to Davis (1965-1988) and Herbaryum of Ataturk University, Faculty of Agriculture, Department of Plant Protection by third author. General distributions of the species were taken from Yu et al. (2012) and vegetation data in studied areas are given in Table 1. 280

Zoogeographical characterization The zoogeographical characterization follows mainly the chorotype classification of the Near East fauna, proposed by Taglianti et al. (1999). After investigation of the recent geographic distribution of the species, listed above, they can be divided into the following groups: 1. Cosmopolitan range has the species Hypsicera femoralis. 2. With multi-regional range is the species Acrodactyla quadrisculpta. 3. Ranges in two zoogeographical regions have 8 species. Six species are from Holarctic/Palaearctic and Oriental region Dichrogaster liostylus, Mesoleptus laticinctus, Triclistus globulipes, Pimpla spuria, Acrotomus succinctus and Oedemopsis scabricula. Two species are from Holarctic/Palaearctic and Afrotropical region Encrateola laevigata and Gambrus incubitor. 4. Holarctic ranges have 7 species Aritranis director, Buathra laborator, Mesostenus albinotatus, Exochus mitratus, Apechthis compunctor, Gregopimpla inquisitor and Pimpla aquilonia. 286

Çoruh et al., Türk. entomol. derg., 2014, 38(3) 5. Palaearctic ranges have 9 species Bathythrix linearis, Glyphicnemis profligator, Schreineria populnea, Colpotrochia cincta, Exochus prosopius, E. suborbitalis, Pimpla melanacrias, Cosmoconus (Cosmoconus) ceratophorus and Ctenochira meridionator. 6. Ranges in Siberoeuropean region have 5 species Cryptus viduatorius, Itoplectis maculator, Tryphon (Tryphon) rutilator, T. (T) thomsoni and T. (T) zavreli. 7. Hoplocryptus murarius has Centralasian-European range. 8. Turanoeuropean ranges have 5 species Agrothereutes hospes, A. parvulus, Bathythrix pellucidator, Glyphicnemis vagabunda and Ischnus alternator. 9. Numerous are European species Bathythrix lamina, Endasys plagiator, Gambrus tricolor, Gelis cursitans, G. formicarius, G. mutillatus, G. trux, Exochus flavifrons, Pimpla insignatoria and Kristotomus pumilio. In addition to all this, plant insect relationships are of great importance to ecosystem (Petanidou and Lamborn, 2005). Pemberton and Hoover (1980) listed the records of insects (in 66 genera) associated with plants. Weeds on pastures and meadows, are good food sources for Ichneumonidae, which are important beneficial insects as parasitoids of many destructive pests of Coleoptera, Lepidoptera, and other group of insects and arachnoids.
