dc.description.abstractAphid and ant species have a mutualistic or an obligately mutualistic associationin nature conditions. Many ant species protect soft-bodied aphids with a low levelof defense against their natural enemies. This study was conducted to determinethe associations between aphid and ant species from 2014 to 2015 in the Center ofÇanakkale Province and 12 ant species belonging to 8 genera in Dolichoderinae,Formicinae and Myrmicinae subfamilies of Formicidae associated with 16 aphidspecies were determined. The most encountered ant species associated withdifferent aphids were Lasius alienus (Foerster, 1850), Plagiolepis pygmaea(Latreille, 1798), Camponotus aethiops Latreille, 1798 and Plagiolepis tauricaSantsci, 1920. The most encountered aphid species associated with different antspecies, were; Aphis fabae Scopoli, 1763, Aphis gossypii Glover, 1877 and Aphiscraccivora Koch, 1854. Moreover, Camponotus samius Forel, 1889, Camponotussanctus Forel, 1904, Crematogaster ionia Forel, 1911 and Pheidole cf. pallidula(Nylander, 1849) associations with aphids were determined for the first time inTurkey. Furthermore, Aphis nerii Boyer de Fonscolombe, 1841, Aphis punicaePasserini, 1863, Aphis umbrella (Börner, 1950), Chaitophorus leucomelas Koch,1854, Chromaphis juglandicola (Kaltenbach, 1843), Panaphis juglandis (Goeze,1778), Prociphilus fraxini (Fabricius, 1777) and their associations with differentant species were determined for the first time in Turkey. Consequently, therecent studies indicated that aphid-ant associations should be further detailedinvestigated locally.
