Abstract

Apple is the economically most important agricultural product in Amasya. So, identifiying the potentially pest species in apple orchards is very important for agriculture and economy. Auchenorrhyncha species, known as plant pests, adversely affect the growth of plants directly or indirectly and as a result cause abnormal development, damage and even death of plant tissues and cells. In this study, it was aimed to determine the Auchenorrhyncha species which are potentially pests in apple orchards in Amasya, Turkey. 38 species belonging to the Auchenorrhyncha were determined in apple orchards in Amasya and Trypetimorpha occidentalis is recorded for the first time for the Turkish Auchenorrhyncha fauna.
