The others are S. angustipes and S. velutinum . The first record of S. petricolum from Turkey was published by Kalafat and Sirin (2011) . Gazyagci and Aydenizoez (2011) recorded it from the Kizilirmak River in Kirikkale Province. It was also reported from eastern Marmara Region by Sirin et al. (2014) . Simulium petricolum occurs in southern Europe and especially in the Mediterranean countries ( Crosskey and Malicky 2001 ). According to Crosskey and Malicky (2001) , the species is not reliably distinguished from S. velutinum in the aquatic stages, adults being required for positive identification. Our specimens conform in genitalia to the descriptions by Crosskey and Malicky (2001) and Day et al. (2010)
