“…This subgenus is represented by 26 species in Palaearctic Region [13,15,33,34,37,38] and 9 species in Turkey [13,15]. This subgenus was revised Pan and Bologna [13] and species descriptions, diagnostic keys and drawings of some taxonomic characters (male genitals, mesosternums and elytral patterns) are given.…”

The focus of this study is to make important contributions to Meloidae taxonomy. Specimens belonging to thirty-two species of the family Meloidae (Coleoptera) were collected from Ankara province in 2018-2019. Male genital structures of these species were examined. Photographs and drawings of the male genital organ structures of all these species (32 species), and descriptions of some of them, which were found to be missing in the current literature, were given. The taxonomic key has been constructed for these species from the present literature and examined materials. Also, male genital organs of all species were compared to the literature. Photographs and drawings of the male genital organs of Alosimus luteus (Waltl, 1838), A. marginicollis (Haag-Rutenberg, 1880) and Euzonitis rubida (Ménétriés, 1832) were given for the first time with this study.

“…Its adults mainly feed on flowers of B. napus ( Tian Yubo et al, 2021 ). Until now, studies on M. sibirica have concentrated on classification ( ČernÝ and Vrabec, 2019 ; Pan and Ren, 2020 ), phylogenetics ( Bologna et al, 2005 ) and medical value ( Tian Yubo et al, 2021 ), however, little is known on gene functions. Gene expression analyses are essential to study molecular mechanisms of development, reproduction and physiology.…”

Mylabris sibirica is a hypermetamorphic insect whose adults feed on oilseed rape. However, due to a shortage of effective and appropriate endogenous references, studies on molecular functional genes in Mylabris sibirica, have been tremendously limited. In this study, ten internal reference genes (ACT, ARF1, AK, EF1α, GAPDH, α-TUB, RPL6, RPL13, RPS3 and RPS18) were tested and assessed under four selected treatments including adult ages, adult tissues, temperatures, and sex by RT-qPCR based on five methods (Ct value, geNorm, NormFinder, BestKeeper and RefFinder). Our findings showed that RPL6 and RPL13 were the most optimal internal reference gene combination for gene expression during various adult ages and under diverse temperatures; The combination of RPL6 and RPS18 was recommended to test gene transcription levels under different adult tissues. AK and RPL6 were the best reference genes in male and female adults. RPL6 and RPL13 were the most appropriate reference gene pair to estimate gene expression levels under four different tested backgrounds. The relative transcript levels of a uridine diphosphate (UDP)-N-acetylglucosamine-pyrophosphorylase (MsUAP), varied greatly according to normalization with the two most- and least-suited reference genes. This study will lay the basis for further molecular physiology and biochemistry studies in M. sibirica, such as development, reproduction, sex differentiation, cold and heat resistance.
