Abstract
Many insect families contain one or more predatory species. In some of these families, all species are predators. Many predators are important as biological control agents against crop pest insects in agricultural pest management. Among them are true bugs (Hemiptera) with about dozen families of predators that they prey on insects and other small invertebrates. This study is based upon material of predatory Heteroptera collected from different localities of Turkey between 1967 and 2015. In this study, predatory Heteroptera and their potential prey species are investigated and 19 species of true bugs from the families Anthocoridae, Lygaeidae and Miridae, feeding on aphids are revealed in Turkey. In addition, information on their sampling localites is given.
