Abstract

In order to determine Cheloninae (Hymenoptera, Braconidae) fauna of Turkey, adult specimens were collected from different habitats of Bingöl, Bitlis, Muş, and Van provices. In addition, the material provided from Gaziantep, Iğdır, Kars and Siirt was also evaluated in the study. Sweeping nets, Malaise and light traps were used for samples collection. Material was prepared and appropriately labeled. Relevant literature and comparison material available in our collection were used for taxonomical examination of the material. The properties of the localities are also given. In total, of 43 species from 4 genera were recorded. Eleven of these species are the first record for the turkish fauna.
