- Abstract
In this study, the presence of Chestnut gall wasp (Dryocosmus kuriphilus Yasumatsu (Hymenoptera: Cynipidae)) in Aydın province and its prevalence in İzmir province were determined. For this purpose, the chestnut growing areas in Efeler, Köşk, Sultanhisar, Nazilli districts of Aydın province; in Beydağ, Ödemiş, Kiraz districts of İzmir province were visited weekly in April-August in 2021 and 2022 and samplings were carried out. As a result, galls of Chestnut gall wasp were observed in the Çamlık-Çomaklar neighborhoods of Beydağ and Bıçakçı neighborhood of Ödemiş in the province of İzmir during the surveys carried out in the chestnut fields in June 2021, but the galls were not found in the other surveyed areas. In addition, the galls of Chestnut gall wasp were observed in Börülcelik, Erikli and Tabaklar neighborhood of Beydağ in 2022. In Aydın, however, no chestnut galls were found in 2021. In the samplings made in May in 2022, chestnut galls were found in Apaklar, Kaşıkçılar and Samailli neighborhood of Nazilli and in Uzunlar neighborhood of Sultanhisar. With the detection of this pest in Aydın which is the biggest chestnut producer in Turkey, it is very important to accelerate the studies to be carried out on the control of the pest. If an emergency action plan is not taken, the damage of the pest will increase over the years and chestnut production will decrease further in Aydın.
