Development, Survival and Reproduction of Three Coccinellids Feeding on Hyalopterus Pruni (Geoffer) (Homoptera: Aphididae)
(TUBITAK, 2002) Atlihan, R.; Kaydan, M.B.
The development, survival and fecundity of three aphidophagus coccinellid species. Scymnus apetzi (Mulsant). Scymnus subvillosus (Goeze) and Exochomus nigromaculatus (Goeze), were studied under laboratory conditions (25 ± 1.65 ± 5% RH and 16 L/8D). Development time from egg to adult was 20.4, 17.1 and 16.7 days for S. apetzi, S. subvillosus and E. nigromaculatus, respectively. Mortality rate from egg to adulthood was highest for S. apetzi (37.9%) followed by S. subvillosus (36.3%) and E. nigromaculatus (25.7%). Duration of the oviposition period was 58.6, 64.9 and 75.3 days, and the total number of eggs per female was 492.8, 224.9 and 428.5 for S. apetzi, S. subvillosus and E. nigromaculatus, respectively. According to the life table parameters, net reproduction rate per female (Ro), the intrins rate of increase (rm), and mean generation time (To) were 137.5, 0.121 and 40.7 for S. apetzi: 69.9, 0.110 and 38.3 for S. subvillosus, and 157.2. 0.134 and 37.7 for E. nigromaculatus. The results obtained here provide information about the biology of three coccinellids that might be useful for the utilization of these predators in IPM programs against H. pruni.
Effects of Tobacco Varieties on Eidonomy and Life Table Parameters of the Aphid Species Myzus Persicae (Hemiptera: Aphididae)
(E. Schweizerbart'sche Verlagsbuchhandlung, 2006) Kaydan, M.B.; Atlihan, R.; Toros, S.
The development, longevity, reproduction, and life table parameters of the green peach aphid, Myzus persicae Sulzer 1776, were evaluated on ten commonly grown varieties of Nicotiana tabacum (Adiyaman, Bitlis- i̇çgeçit, Bursa 18000, Diyarbakir, Düzce- Özbaş, İzmir-Karabaǧlar 6265, Malatya, Samsun-Maden, Trabzon 209/87, Tömbeki 7703) at 26±1 °C, 65±10% RH and 14:10 h (l:d) light under laboratory conditions. The developmental time for the immature stages ranged from 5.46 days on İzmir-Karabaǧlar 62/65 -7.25 days on Tömbeki 7703. The average number of nymphs reproduced per female were 88.94, 88.58, 83.22,80.77,75.92,71.54,70.22,69.88,68.20 and 54.70 on Samsun-Maden, Adiyaman, Trabzon 209/87, İzmir-Karabaǧlar 6265, Malatya, Bitlis-Īçgeçit, Düzce-Özbaş, Bursa 18000, Tömbeki 7703, respectively. Longevity of females ranked from 32.80 days on Trabzon 209/87 -26.00 days on Tömbeki 7703. Population growth rate (rm) for green peach aphid was the highest on Samsun-Maden and the lowest on Tömbeki 7703. Values of rm varied from 0.401 on Samsun-Maden to 0.287 on Tömbeki 7703. The mean population generation time of varieties tested ranged from 11.88 on Samsun-Maden to 14.06 days on Tömbeki 7703. According to results obtained in this study Tömbeki 7703 appeared to be the most resistant while Samsun-Maden appeared to be the most susceptible to the green peach aphid among the varieties tested. © 2006 E.

First Records of Armoured Scale Insects (Hemiptera: Coccoidea: Diaspididae) From the Oil-Rose, Rosa Damascena, in Turkey
(2009) Demirözer, O.; Kaydan, M.B.; Karaca, I.; Ben-Dov, Y.
The olive Parlatoria scale, Parlatoria oleae (Colvée) and the apple oyster-shell scale Lepidosaphes ulmi (L.) (Hemiptera: Coccoidea: Diaspididae) are recorded for the first time infesting the oil-rose, Rosa damascena, at Isparta, Turkey. These armoured scale insects are considered as potential pests to the cultivation of the oil-rose. © Benaki Phytopathological Institute.
Initial Studies on Pseudococcidae Fauna in Van Province of Turkey
(2001) Kaydan, M.B.; Kozár, F.; Yaşar, B.; Erkilic, L.
This study was carried out at Van province, Turkey between 1996 and 1998. Wild plants and cultivated crops from different habitats were surveyed and mealybug samples were collected. Slides were prepared from these samples and nineteen species were identified of which 2 have been previously identified. These species were found belonging to 8 genera which are belong to the family Pseudococcidae. Antonina graminis. Atrococcus ingidens, Atrococcus saxatilis, Euripersia amnicola, Heliococcus bohemicus, Heliococcus saxatilis, Mirococcus inermis, Peliococcus bitubulatus, Peliococcus manifectus, Peliococcus terrestris, Peliococcus turanicus, Peliococcus unispinus, Phenacoccus affinis, Phenacoccus karaberdi, Phenacoccus tergrigorianae, Trionymus abberans and Trionymus graminellus are for the first time to be recorded in Turkey.

A survey of scale insects was carried out in Ankara, in Middle Anatolia, Turkey from 2001 to 2003. Twenty-three species belonging to 5 families were recorded. Eleven of these species are new record for Turkey, namely; Exaeretopus agropyri (Hadzibejli), Exaeretopus formiceticola Newstead, Exaeretopus tritici Williams, Chortinaspis subterraneus (Lindinger), Diaspidiotus elaeagni (Borchsenius), Diaspidiotus sulci Balachowsky, Rhizaspidiotus canariensis (Lindinger), Acanthococcus devoniensis (Green), Acanthococcus tavignani Goux, Acanthococcus variabilis Goux, Neomargarodes festucae Archangelskaya and Porphyrophora minuta Borchsenius. © 2005 Akadémiai Kiadó, Budapest.

Two new genera, Borchseniococcus gen. nov. and Kotejacoccus gen. nov., and two new species, B. duzgunesae sp. nov., off an undetermined plant, and K. turcicus sp. nov., off Quercus sp., are described in the family Eriococcidae from Turkey. In addition, new faunistical data on 11 other eriococcid species from Turkey are given. In total, the number of scale insects (Hemiptera: Coccoidea) in Turkey is increased to 272, and the number of species in the family Eriococcidae to 25. Copyright © 2008 Magnolia Press.
