Five new records, new localities and new host plants for the Turkish flea-beetle fauna (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae: Alticinae)

Altica lencorana Konstantinov, A. longicollis (Allard), Aphthona atrocaerulae (Stephens), A. violaceae (Koch), and Phyllotreta lorestanica Warchalowski are new for the Turkish Alticinae fauna. A. lencorana and P. lorestanica have earlier been known to occur only in their type localities in Azerbaijan and Iran, respectively. Since then, the records reported here (Bayburt and Erzurum provinces) are the first localities for A. lencorana, and that of Erzurum for P. lorestanica. Additionally, Centaurea glastifolia L. is reported as a new host plant for A. lencorana, and Euphorbia falcate and E. eriophora as new host plants of Aphthona atrocaerulea and A. violaceae, respectively. The chorotype and host plants are reported for each of the five species.
