Özet

In this study, Cercopidae Leach, 1815 (Hemiptera: Auchenorrhyncha: Cicadomorpha) specimens obtained from field studies on Musa Mountain (Samandağ/HATAY) between April and September 2022 were evaluated. As a result of the identification of the collected specimens, three species belonging to two genera were identified. Some variation types seen in Cercopis distincta (Melichar, 1896), one of the detected species, were recorded. With this research, Triecphorella geniculata (Horváth, 1881) was recorded for the first time in Hatay province. Detailed photographs of the habitus and genitalia parts of this species are provided. Considering the available data of all identified species, current distribution maps were created and brief evaluations were made about the dispersal patterns of these species.
