Özet

The genus Megabruchidius has been recorded recently in many European countries. This study reports the first records of M. tonkineus and M. dorsalis from Turkey. Both species were detected in the hard seeds of Gleditsia triacanthos. M. tonkineus emerged from pods collected at all locations, while M. dorsalis was found at two locations. Both species were collected in the same trees in Istanbul and Duzce Provinces.
