Özet

©Biharean Biologist, Oradea, Romania, 2019Here, we report new localities for Eirenis occidentalis and Eirenis punctatolineatus from the eastern Anatolia during a field survey in 2017, and present a summary of a morphological comparison between our specimens and published literature. Our findings largely extend the known distributions of both species: Çöpler village (İliç, Erzincan) is the northernmost record for E. occidentalis, whereas Karanlık Canyon (Kemaliye, Erzincan) is the north westernmost record for E. punctatolineatus in Turkey.
