Özet:

Alticini species composition, richness and abundance were studied comparatively in four different habitats with different floristic characteristics chosen from Bafa Lake Natural Park. The study was conducted regularly at 15-day intervals during 2012 and 2013. A total of 480 individuals belonging to 10 genera and 55 species of Alticini were collected. Among them Longitarsus aeruginosus (Foudras, 1860) (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) was determined as new record for the Alticini fauna of Turkey and is presented with related figures. According to Shannon-Wiener, Simpson and Berger-Parker indices of diversity, Meadow area 1 (MA1) was detected as the most diverse habitat. Jaccard and Bray-Curtis similarity indices showed that Alticini communities in Olive grove area 1 (OGA1) and Meadow area 1 (MA1) were more closely related. Data gathered from regular samplings were also displayed by graphics obtained from analyses of Rarefaction and Abundance plot k-dominance. The reasons affecting species diversity of areas were discussed.
