Özet:

Some species of Chamaemyiidae and Cryptochaetidae are natural enemies of scale insects (Hemiptera: Coccomorpha) in Turkey. To further that knowledge, this study involved field sampling in two weeks period in Antalya, İzmir and Muğla Provinces during two different projects that covered the springs and summers between 2009 and 2011, and then between 2016 and 2018. From that sampling, Lichtensia viburni Signoret (Hemiptera: Coccidae) and Pseudococcus comstocki (Kuwana) (Pseudococcidae) are reported as new host records for Leucopomyia palliditarsis (Rondani) (Diptera: Chamaemyiidae) in Turkey. In addition, the endoparasitoid Cryptochaetum buccatum Hendel (Cryptochaetidae) was recorded for the first time on Palaeoccoccus fuscipennis (Burmeister) (Monophlebidae) in Turkey. Also, Cryptochaetum grandicorne Rondani is reported from Gueriniella serratulae Fabricius (Monophlebidae) in Ankara. In addition, their hosts and distribution in Turkey are provided.
