“…Similar decreasing trends in the heavy metal concentrations in A. versuta, P. intricatus, L. striatella and P. provincialis in the cherry orchards with the increasing distance from the motorway were also found in the study of Karavin (2024). E. decipiens could only be collected at 0 m in the apple orchards, similarly, it was found more commonly at 0 m, and in only one plot at 50 m in cherry orchards.…”

“…In order to determine the heavy metal contents of specimens, microwave extraction method was applied to dried and milled specimens (Naccarato et al, 2020;Karavin, 2024). Heavy metal contents were measured by using ICP-OES as mg.kg -1 dry weight.…”

“…Other studies focused on Aranea, Coleoptera Odonata, Lepidoptera and Hymenoptera (Samways et al, 1997;Severns, 2008;Hayward et al, 2010;Melis et al, 2010;Soluk et al, 2011). Karavin (2024) investigated the heavy metal concentrations accumulated in the bodies of Auchenorrhyncha species depending on the distance from the road in cherry orchards and found that the heavy metal concentrations in the specimens increased as the distance from the motorway decreased.…”

Traffic is an important pollution factor causing environmental damages such as soil, water and atmospheric pollution, greenhouse effect, and climate change. Effects of traffic pollution on various organisms enlightened with various studies. In this study, it was aimed to examine the effects of traffic-based pollution on Auchenorrhyncha (Insecta: Hemiptera) species in apple orchards and their potential as biomonitor for heavy metal pollution. The Auchenorrhyncha specimens were collected from the apple orchards near the Amasya-Samsun motorway in Türkiye. The heavy metal concentrations were determined by ICP-OES. Five Auchenorrhyncha species were determined from three sites from each of three different distance. Empoasca decipiens specimens were collected only from 0 m while others found in all localities. Heavy metal concentrations in insect specimens tended to decrease with the increasing distance from the motorway. These differences were clearly indicated in Psammotettix provincialis and Phlepsius intricatus, which were found in all localities. Except for Ni, Fe and Mn for Phlepsius intricatus, all examined heavy metals significantly varied in both species. Results showed that heavy metals tended to accumulate in the body of Auchenorrhyncha specimens and because of this they may be evaluated as a biomonitor for heavy metal pollution.
