Abstract :This study was carried out in order to determine aphid species in the Inner Western Anatolian Subregion of Turkey. Nineteen aphid species are reported as new to the Turkish aphid fauna. These species are Aphis eryngiiglomerata Bozhko, 1963; Aphis glareosae Bozhko, 1959; Capitophorus eniwanus Miyazaki, 1971; Chaitophorus indicus A.K. Ghosh, M.R. Ghosh & D.N. Raychaudhuri, 1970; Chaitophorus ramicola insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Börner, 1949);; Cinara indica Verma, 1970; Cinara juniperensis insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Gillette & Palmer, 1925);; Cinara oxycedri Binazzi, 1996; Cinara setosa insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Börner, 1950);; Eulachnus thunbergii Wilson, 1919; Hyadaphis passerinii insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Del Guercio, 1911);; Mindarus kinseyi Voegtlin, 1995; Myzus padellus Hille Ris Lambers & Rogerson, 1946; Phylloxera quercina insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Ferrari, 1872);; Rhopalosiphum rufulum Richards, 1960; Schizaphis dubia Huculak, 1968; Schizolachnus orientalis insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Takahashi, 1924);; Tiliaphis shinjii Higuchi, 1972; and Tuberculatus borealis insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Krzywiec, 1971);. Among these, 5 species are invasive to the Turkish aphidofauna. It is not surprising that new records and invasive species would be added to the Turkish aphid fauna due to Turkey`s special floristic composition and various geographical and climatic features.
