Abstract
This article includes new species, new subspecies, new records and new records for provinces added to the fauna of Turkey Chrysomelidae since 2014. This study, It has been prepared by considering the publications of researchers who have contributed to the Turkish Chrysomelidae fauna since 2014. Since 2014, Turkish and foreign researchers have added a total of 15 new species (Labidostomis (Labidostomis) leonardii sp. nov., Bruchidius planicornis sp. nov., Luperus doeberli n. sp., Cryptocephalus (Cryptocephalus) cilicius n. sp., Rhodopaea heinzi sp.n. Scelolyperus perreus Bezděk sp. nov., Chrysolina (Lopatinica) kabalaki sp. n., Cheilotoma cankiriensis spec. nov., Labidostomis atkaracalarica sp. nov., Hydrothassa (Agrostithassa) anatolica sp. nov., Argopus circumaedeagus sp. nov., Cassida alidagiense sp. nov.; Aphthona harputensis sp. nov.; Phyllotreta bilgeae sp. nov.; Phyllotreta aygulae sp. nov.) 18 new registrations and 2 new record subspecies (Cryptocephalusrugicollis otomana sub sp. n., Chrysolina (Chalcoidea) sanguineocinctapinarbasiense subsp. nov.) to the Chrysomelidae fauna in Turkey. As a result, with the contributions of Turkish and foreign researchers, 4 new species belonging to the Alticinae subfamily; 1 new species belonging to Bruchinae subfamily; 1 new species belonging to Cassidinae subfamily; 3 new species and 1 subspecies belonging to subfamily Chrysomelinae; 3 new species belonging to the subfamily Clytrinae; 2 new species belonging to Galerucinae subfamily and 1 new species belonging to Eumolpinae subfamily have been added to the Turkish Chrysomelidae fauna. The number of subfamily species increased with new species and new subspecies on 7 subfamilies. Which researcher contributed to the Chrysomelidae fauna of Turkey which study is seen in the tables given in our study.
