The records of 20 species are new as previously published records of these don't exist. The newly recorded species are:

Aphodius (Acrossus) gagatinus Ménétriés, 1832 Aphodius (Acrossus) planicollis (Reitter, 1890)

Aphodius (Biralus) equinus (Faldermann, 1835)

Aphodius (Chilothorax) pustulifer Reitter, 1892 Aphodius (Neagolius) abchasicus Reitter, 1892 Aphodius (Phalacronotus) citellorum Semenov et Medvedev, 1929 Aphodius (Plagiogonus) nanoides (Balthasar, 1961)

Aphodius (Pseudosymus) lucidus Klug, 1845 Oxyomus silvestris (Scopoli, 1763)

Pleurophorus apicipennis Reitter, 1892 Rhyssemus algiricus meridionalis Reitter, 1901 Bubas bison (Linnaeus, 1767)

Onthophagus (Palaeonthophagus) similis (Scriba, 1790)

Onthophagus (Palaeonthophagus) tesquorum Semenov et Medvedev, 1929 Eulasia (s.str.) arctos arctos (Pallas, 1781)

Eulasia (s.str.) korbi (Petrovitz, 1972)

Homaloplia (s.str.) ruricola ruricola (Fabricius, 1775)

Hoplia caucasica Kolenati, 1846 Hoplia cylindrica Reitter, 1903 Hoplia pollinosa Krynicki, 1832

The further research of Turkey's Lamellicomia fauna may reveal more novelties regarding the distribution of species known from surrunding territories. We can anticipate new distribution records especially in East-Anatolia. The dispersion of Caucasian, Iranian and Syrian species is perceivable in this area.
