Özet

This paper reports on six species of the genus Copidognathus Trouessart 1888, studied from sandy habitats along the Turkish Aegean coasts (Balikesir and Izmir) and the Mediterranean coast (Antalya). Two species, Copidognathus boyacisp. nov. and C. ozkanisp. nov. are described as species new to science. Additionally, two species, C. brevipes Viets 1940, and C. latisetus Viets 1940, are recorded for the first time from the eastern Mediterranean Sea, Türkiye. Furthermore, revised descriptions and new illustrations of C. dentatus Viets 1940, and C. longirostris are provided for both sexes.http://www.zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:4539526C-F5C0-44ED-B727-DA2B921FDBFF.
