TI  - New Faunistic Data for Asilidae (Diptera) Fauna of Türkiye with Specimens Caught by  Pitfall Traps
AB  - This paper presents three species of robber flies collected by the pitfall trap in 2012 from 5 different habitats in Turkmen mountains, which is not widely  used in sampling for these insects but is used as a standard catch method in many different insect families. These species are Epitriptus micans (Meigen, 1820),  Dysmachus fuscipennis (Meigen, 1820) and Erax hayati Tomasovic, 2002. Epitriptus micans is a new record for the fauna of Türkiye, and all of them were also first  recorded in Türkmen Mountains. Additionally, Erax hayati, has been reported for the second time since its description from Türkiye, after its type locality, Malatya.  The study was compared with other studies in which different capture methods were applied. Brief taxonomic remarks with figures and distributional data are  given for each species.
