Abstract - Collecting was carried out in spring, summer and autumn periods from 1992 to 2002 in a wide range of habitats at different altitudes in the East Marmara Region of Turkey. 14 species of the genus Aleiodes Wesmael, 1838 were determined. Four species are reported for the first time in the Turkish fauna. The general distribution and known hosts of the taxa are added.

Izvleoek - PRVI PODATKI O VRSTAH RODU ALEIODES WESMAEL, 1838, V VZHODNI MARMARSKI REGIJI TUROIJE (HYMENOPTERA: BRACONIDAE: ROGADINAE)
Zbiranje je potekalo v pomladanskih, poletnih in jesenskih obdobjih od leta 1992 do 2002 v razlionih aivljenjskih prostorih na razlionih nadmorskih vioinah v Vzhodni marmarski regiji Turoije. Dolooili smo 14 vrst iz rodu Aleoides Wesmael, 1838. Otiri vrste so prvio ugotovljene v turoki favni. Navedeni so sploona razoirjenost in znani gostitelji vrst.

Introduction
The Rogadinae (Hym.: Braconidae) is a rather large and cosmopolitan subfamily. The genus Aleiodes is worldwide in distribution, but is particularly species rich in the Holarctic  region.  The  species  of Aleiodes  are koinobiont endoparasitoids  of

Acta entomologica slovenica, 14 (1), 2006
Lepidopteran larvae, especially of Noctuidae and Geometridae. The host caterpillar is mummified (Shaw, 1997). The genus Aleiodes comprise 215 species and about 126 species in the Palaearctic (Yu et al., 2005).
The Nearctic Aleiodes species were revised by Marsh & Shaw (1998, 2001), Shaw & Marsh (1999) and Shaw et al. (1997, 1998a, 1998b). European species are under revision by Van Achterberg & Shaw. Main studies concerning Aleiodes species in the Palaearctic region were done by Papp (1985a, 1985b, 1986, 1989a, 1989b, 1996), Achterberg (1985) and Belokobylskij (1996). In addition a cladistic analysis of a large part of the species of Aleiodes was published by Fortier & Shaw (1999).
Only 14 species of the Rogadinae are recorded from Turkey (Aydogdu & Beyarslan, 2005; Beyarslan et al, 2002; Oncuer, 1991; Shenefelt, 1975). A faunistic study of the Rogadinae species of Turkey hasn’t been carried out up to now.
Many species of Braconidae use hosts which are important economically as pests of crops. The need for programmed “biological” control is already becoming more urgent as the effectiveness of chemical methods of pest control declines. The use of parasitoid insects in the control of pest species has not met more than sporadic success. To be effective in biological control an intimate knowledge of the biology of the insects involved is essential, and this depends upon an accurate knowledge of their taxonomy.
Materials and Methods
Solitary endoparasitoid Aleiodes species were collected from pastures, vegetable garden, crop fields, orchards, trefoil, olive grove, hazelnut garden, pine forests and mixed forests at different altitudes in East Marmara region between 1992 and 2002. The specimens were collected by using a sweep net and Malaise traps. Specimens were then pinned and labeled according to taxonomic rules and regulations. Pertinent literature was used for determination of species (Papp, 1985a; Tobias et al., 1986). Some species were determined by Dr. S.A. Belokobylskij (Zoological Institute, Russian Academy of Sciences, St. Petersburg, Russia). Identified species of Aleiodes provided by Dr. S.A. Belokobylskij and Dr J. Papp (Zoological Department, Hungarian Natural History Museum, Budapest, Hungary) were used as comparision materials.
References are used for known distributions and hosts of the species in the world (Belokobylskij, 1996; Beyarslan et al., 2002; Papp, 1985a, 1989b, 1996; Papp & Rezbanyai-Reser, 1997; Shenefelt, 1975; Tobias et al., 1986). Localities (with grid numbers) and collecting dates are listed for 14 species found in research areas. The collecting places (provinces) of species are shown on the map (Fig. 1).
The material is deposited in the Collection of Biological Department of Trakya University, Edirne, Turkey (T.U.). The following example denotes the information given for the material examined.

Results
In the present survey fifteen taxa of Lepidoptera endoparasitoids were found in the East Marmara region of Turkey, which has not yet been exposed to massive applications of pesticides. By adding these new records, the number of Aleiodes species in Turkey has been raised from 14 to 18.
