Özet
This study was conducted to determine the Cercopidae Leach, 1815 (Hemiptera: Auchenorrhyncha) fauna of the Central and Southern Kuseyr Plateau (Hatay/Turkey). For this purpose, samples were collected with a net, hand and tweezers from the different habitats of the region in April-June 2014-2015. However, in the process of evaluating the samples, it was found that Cercopis sanguinolenta (Scopoli, 1763) and Cercopis intermedia Kirschbaum, 1868 species were frequently confused with each other. This is because two different approaches were adopted that have resulted in a dilemma over the type of C. sanguinolenta before the Principle of Priority was established. With this study, not only the current controversy is eliminated, but also redescriptions of Cercopis distincta (Melichar, 1896), C. intermedia and Cercopis septemmaculata (Melichar, 1903) is made with informative images and morphometric data. Among these species, complete locality record has been provided for an uncertain Turkey records of C. septemmaculata and the first local record of C. distincta, which is defined as an endemic species in Turkey but whose terra typica is unknown, was also revealed with this study. New distribution maps of these species are presented with local and worldwide distributional data, and also an identification key is given, including other Cercopis Fabricius, 1775 species that occur in Turkey.
