Contributions to Achenium Leach, 1819 (Coleoptera, Staphylinidae, Paederinae) fauna of Turkey

In this study, total of 388 specimens of the genus Achenium Leach,1819 (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae) were collected by aspirator andsifter methods from different provinces of Aegean and CentralAnatolia Regions of Turkey between 2014 and 2019. As a result ofthe field studies, five species of the genus were recorded. Thesespecies wereAchenium anatolicum Jarrige, 1952; A. humile (Nicolai,1822); A. propontiacum Bordoni, 2009; A. scimbalioides Koch, 1937and A. turcicum Coiffait, 1971. Of the recorded species; A. humilefrom the Aegean Region and A. turcicum from Central AnatoliaRegion were the first recorded for the area. A. turcicum was reportedfor the first time outside the type locality and its distribution wasfound to be much wider than previously known. A. turcicum and A.anatolicum were the endemic species for Anatolia.
