Özet

The paper presents all species of Lygus Hahn in Turkey. In this study, a total of 228 Lygus samples collected from Çankırı between 2013–2014 are evaluated. As a result, a total of six species of Lygus are determined from Turkey. In addition, Lygus wagneri ozdikmeni ssp. n., a new subspecies of Lygus wagneri from Çankırı province of Turkey is described. Habitus of holotype (male) and its genitalia are photographed. The newly described subspecies differs significantly from the nominative subspecies of Lygus wagneri and the other closely related Lygus species in terms of genital morphology and external morphology. The distribution data in Turkey and the world of all Lygus species are also given in the text. Accordingly, an identification key for all Lygus species in Turkey is provided.
