Abstract

There are many insect and mite species from different order sand families that cause damage to vineyards. Therefore, it is important to use biotechnical methods as well as biological and chemical control in a certain combination in the fight against harmful species in order to preserve the natural balance between living things in the ecosystem. In this way, it will be possible to protect and support the beneficial insect and mite fauna in the fight and control of harmful insects. For this purpose, the study was carried out weekly in two vineyards of 10 decares each between 2021-2022 years to check beneficial insect and mite species in the vine yard areas in Hürriyet and Yazgı neighborhoods of Hazro District of Diyarbakır Province. In this study, prey species were collected using the sweep net, Japanese umbrella, as well as the visual inspection method. The study yielded findings on Coccinella septempunctata (Linnaeus), which belongs to the Coccinellidae (Coleoptera) family, as well as Hyperaspis quadrimaculata (Redtenbacher), Hippodamia variegata (Goeze), and Chrysoperla carnea (Stephens), all of which belong to the Chrysopidae (Neuroptera) and Macaroeris nidicolens (Walckenaer, andTh), belonging to the Salticidae (Araneae) family. A total of 6 predator species, including Xysticus sp. belonging to the (Araneae) family, needs to be clarified.
