Abstract

The occurrence of Charagmus variegatus in the East Mediterranean and Turkey is confirmed. Six adult individuals were obtained by sweeping several plants including Polygonum equisetiforme Sm. and Ononix sp. at the eastern Mediterranean coast of Turkey. Morphological characters of C. variegatus are studied, including female terminalia segments and genitalia that are illustrated. The bursa copulatrix is an unusual sclerotized structure in this species. Comparative diagnostic and morphological characters for differentiating C. variegatus and C. cachectus are also presented.
