Carabus (Trachycarabus) sibiricus haeres: Březina, 1994: 22 (part.); 1999: 22 (part.); Obydov, 2002 : 353 (part.). Type locality: The species has been described from Sibérie, without more precise indication of locality. Carabus sibiricus fossulatus is surely absent in Siberia. So, most probably, the original indication of type locality Sibérie is wrong. Holototype of Carabus fossulatus is preserved in the Muséum national d Histoire naturelle (Paris). According to my materials the specimens from south European Russia (Kursk Region) are mostly close to the holotype, so I consider this area as the type locality of taxon. Diagnosis: Body length mm. Sculpture of frons, vertex and neck rough with dense coarse punctures and coarse wrinkles; palpi slightnly dilated; pronotum convex with coarse sculpture; elytrae convex, oval with very big and deep primary elytral foveoles; sternal sulci deep. Coloration black with weak luster. Discussion Carabus sibiricus fossulatus Dejean, 1826 is usually considered as a synonym of Carabus sibiricus haeres Fischer von Waldheim, 1824 by many authors. Carabus sibiricus haeres (Fig. 4) has been described from European Russia, Ryazan. This species is distributed in European Russia: Ryazan, Tula and Moscow Regions. The species has been found in the Moscow Region recently in 2002 and specified for the Serebryano- Prudsky area, in the vicinities of Lishnyagi Village (Nikitsky, 2003). Carabus sibiricus haeres strongly differs from Carabus sibiricus fossulatus by much more rough sculpture of the head and pronotum and totally different elytral sculpture. Elytral sculpture of Carabus sibiricus fossulatus is very rough with very big and deep primary elytral foveoles, while in Carabus sibiricus haeres elytral sculpture relatively smooth with small, often indistinct primary elytral foveoles.

8 176 Mun. Ent. Zool. Vol. 2, No. 2, June 2007 Besides that the area of Carabus sibiricus fossulatus is situated much more to the south: approximately forming a triangle, namely Kursk- Belgorod-Kharkov. Distribution: South European Russia (Kursk env., Belgorod env.) and north Ukraine (Kharkov env.). Habitat: The subspecies inhabits mixed kolki forests. Remark: C. (Trachycarabus) bosphoranus Fischer von Waldheim 1824, distributing in mountain steppes of Crimea and Caucasus, C. (Trachycarabus) errans Fischer von Waldheim 1824 from steppes of the southern Ukraine and foothills of Caucasus and C. (Trachycarabus) rybinskii Reitter, 1896 from western Ukraine, which are considered by some authors as subspecies of C. (Trachycarabus) sibiricus are rather peculiar morphologically and are considered as a separate species. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I wish to express my heartfelt gratitude to Dr. Nikolay B. Nikitsky (Zoological Museum of Moscow Lomonosov State University, Moscow) for providing with an opportunity to study the collections of the museum.

14 182 Mun. Ent. Zool. Vol. 2, No. 2, June 2007 INTRODUCTION Works on Turkish longicorn beetles began in late 19th century. Especially since the last century, they were increased as chiefly faunistic and taxonomic works. Recently, they continue with an increased speed. Knowledge about Turkish longicorn beetles, however, is far from satisfactory. Organized work on this subject is also absent. Nevertheless, it can be mentioned as a planned work that Gianfranco Sama (Italy) stated considering the preparation of a series entitled Atlas of the Cerambycidae of Europe and the Mediterranean Area in five volumes. The first volume included Northern, Western, Central and Eastern Europe and published by Sama in Sama (2002) said that he had planned to evaluate Southern Europe including also European Turkey in a fourth volume and East Mediterranean including also Asian Turkey (= Anatolia) in a fifth volume. Unfortunately, even the second volume has not been published yet. On the other hand, Lodos (1998) gave a simple list of Turkish Cerambycidae species in his editorial book entitled Türkiye Entomolojisi VI. However, this list includes numerous mistakes and is far from being a representative work of Turkish Cerambycidae fauna. In any work, the recorded information has not also been reviewed yet. Besides information related to faunistical composition of Turkey has not been determined yet. This scattered information can be obtained from the cited references. Clearly, there is not any work on Turkish Cerambycidae related to the whole territories of Turkey or regions of Turkey (see below for regions in Turkey) at present. Previous works were either short notes on short-lived expeditions or about at most a province and its environment. Also, works including description of new taxons are sometimes encountered. Opposed to this, European fauna has almost been investigated entirely as mentioned in Sama (2002) and Russian fauna has also been given mainly in Danilevsky (2005a). As is well known, Turkey has continental properties and is the origin of many taxons and is a refigium (an area where conditions have enabled a species or a community of species surviving after extinction in surrounding areas) affecting living creatures from geological and climatical changes and more biological importance than any land in the world. As seen the whole world, incredible variations have also been seen among the insects which are the most influenced living creatures from these changes occurring in the past in Turkey. For the present, the fauna of Turkey has not been completely investigated yet. Since Turkey appears as a continental property changeable in very short distances in terms of climatical features and field structures. Also the number of studies are not enough. Hence, a series of works is planned with the aim exposing the Turkish Cerambycidae fauna in as much detail as possible and in its entirety by beginning from Black Sea Region. The present study is an attempt at the

15 Mun. Ent. Zool. Vol. 2, No. 2, June first step of this aim. The Black Sea Region will be evaluated in three parts as Western Black Sea, Central Black Sea and Eastern Black Sea Parts with regard to some interesting properties. The distribution of species in Turkey has not been determined yet. Therefore, understanding of zoogeography of Turkey is seen as being far from any evaluation now. According to Refugial Theory that is supported by improving of Reining (1968), Northern species in the glacial period were placed in refigial areas in the South. In this period, two extensive arboreal refigiums were present. The first one was North-West Anatolia called Paphlagonicus Refigium (= Western Black Sea Region) and the latter one was Irano-Tranian depression in South of the Caspian Sea. The terrestrial connection between them was interrupted except for a narrow land near Sinop province due to Central Anatolia being covered with a large lake. Finally, with the hope of being useful for entomologists studying Turkish fauna, longicorn beetles of Black Sea Region are evaluated and interpreted with respect to nomenclatural, taxonomical, faunistical and zoogeographical with new faunistical records in this first work. COVERED GEOLOGICAL AREA OF THE PRESENT WORK The research area of the present work covers Black Sea Region. As indicated belove, the Black Sea Region has three parts. 1. Western Black Sea Region including seven provinces, namely Düzce, Bolu, Zonguldak, Bartın, Karabük, Kastamonu and Sinop bordered by Marmara Region in the West, Central Black Sea Part in the East, Black Sea in the North and Central Anatolian Region in the South. 2. Central Black Sea Region including five provinces namely Samsun, Çorum, Amasya, Tokat and Ordu bordered by Western Black Sea Part in the West, Eastern Black Sea Region in the East, Black Sea in the North and Central Anatolian Region in the South. 3. Eastern Black Sea Region including six provinces namely Giresun, Trabzon, GümüĢhane, Bayburt, Rize and Artvin bordered by Central Black Sea Part in the West, Armenia and Georgia in the East, Black Sea in the North and Eastern Anatolian Region in the South. Turkey is divided into seven regional parts commonly. These are; Marmara Region (North-West Turkey) A. European Turkey (=Thracia) 1. Ergene Part (including Edirne and Tekirdağ provinces) 2. Istranca Part (including Kırklareli province) 3. Çatalca Part (including Ġstanbul province) B. Asian Turkey (=North-West Anatolia) 1. Kocaeli Part (including Kocaeli and Sakarya provinces) 2.

The other specimens with legit in the text were collected by different collectors from different localities of Turkey and are deposited in Hacettepe University (Ankara). The data under the title of Material examined are given according to the following outline as far as possible as: Ankara(1): Kızılcahamam(2), Güvem(3), 1200 m(4), (5), 2 specimens(6), leg. H. Özdikmen(7) ((1) Administrative district (Province); (2) Town; (3) Village; (4) Altitude; (5) Collecting date (day/month/year); (6) Number of specimens; (7) The name of collector). Records in Turkey. On the first line are given in parenthesis abbreviations of the provinces and lands in Turkey including the new records. These parts include previous records that have been given by various authors in different literatures. The whole records are evaluated as only concerning province and locality in the related reference. Each record is accompanied by the author s name and publication date of related reference. Distribution. In these parts, the whole distribution areas in the world are provided for each taxon. Remarks. In these parts, taxonomical and nomenclatural problems are discussed for some taxons and are given regional and general distribution range in Turkey chiefly. Chorotype. The present zoogeographical characterization is based on the chorotype classification of Anatolian fauna, recently proposed by Vigna Taglianti et al. (1999). In the text, as far as possible as one chorotype description can be identificated for each taxon. But this kind of description can not be possible for some taxons, so two or more chorotypes are used for them. Maps. The maps are given in an appendix. For each taxon, a map showing distribution patterns in Turkey is used. On the maps, black colored parts are represent the European Turkey records in Althoff & Danilevsky (1997). So Edirne province is stained black color representatively. Also striped parts represent new records. The other distribution patterns in Turkey are shown another kind of mark as seen on the maps.
