Özet
Philonthus Stephens, 1829 is the most speciose genus of the tribe Staphylini in the world. In this present study,
faunistic contributions to the Philonthus fauna of Türkiye were made along with additional records. A total of 30 species
were recorded from the examined material which was composed of specimens collected from the Aegean Region
between 2019-2022. Among them, 13 species are new records for the region and new province records for 15 species
are also provided. Additionally, first detailed locality records are provided for the widely distributed Philonthus
viridipennis Fauvel, 1875. Besides several ecological properties, general distribution of species in Türkiye and other
zoogeographical regions are presented and discussed. Previous records from the study region are given and evaluated
with our results, zoogeographic status of species is discussed. As a result of the study, composition of the collected
species represent regional characters, as they mostly belong to the European and Asian fauna.
