This study aims to perform an ecological and zoogeographical analysis of the Meloidae in Ankara province, Türkiye. The ecological evaluations detected higher species diversities in June, 701-900m in elevation range, and 20.1-25.0°C in air temperature. There was no difference in the detecting elevations according to the phylogenetic positions of the species, a significant difference was observed between the collecting air temperatures. Host plants of 33 species were identified. The zoogeographic analysis revealed that the highest rate (18.6% of the detected species) was in the Turano-European regions. Table 5. This study of the species detected from Ankara chorotypes and distributions in geographic regions of Türkiye (MR: Marmara Region, AR: Aegean Region, CAR: Central Anatolian Region (those written in bold were added with this work), MNR: Mediterranean Region, BSR: Black Sea Region, EAR: Eastern Anatolia Region, SAR: Southeastern Anatolia Region, *: species with detailed locality registration in Türkiye for the first time with this study) Species Geographical regions of Türkiye Distribution of Species in the World Cerocoma (s.str.) bernhaueri

The focus of this study is to make important contributions to Meloidae taxonomy. Specimens belonging to thirty-two species of the family Meloidae (Coleoptera) were collected from Ankara province in 2018-2019. Male genital structures of these species were examined. Photographs and drawings of the male genital organ structures of all these species (32 species), and descriptions of some of them, which were found to be missing in the current literature, were given. The taxonomic key has been constructed for these species from the present literature and examined materials. Also, male genital organs of all species were compared to the literature. Photographs and drawings of the male genital organs of Alosimus luteus (Waltl, 1838), A. marginicollis (Haag-Rutenberg, 1880) and Euzonitis rubida (Ménétriés, 1832) were given for the first time with this study.
