Abstract
This study reports on 10 species of the genus Copidognathus Trouessart, 1888 collected from sand sediment habitats and macroalgae in Muğla and Antalya, located along the eastern Mediterranean Sea, Türkiye. Three species, C. cribosoma (Police, 1909), C. figeus Bartsch, 1976 and C. humerosus (Trouessart, 1896) are recorded from the Turkish coasts for the first time, extending their known distribution to the Levantine Sea. Juvenile stages of C. brachyostomus, C. cribosoma, C. gibbus, C. humerosus, C. lamelloides, C. magnipalpus, C. remipes and C. tabellio were also identified and illustrated, with the nymphs of C. cribosoma, C. remipes and the larvae of C. gibbus and C. humerosus being documented for the first time. Additionally, this study provides detailed observations on the adults of C. gibbus, C. majusculatus and C. tabellio which were previously recorded in Türkiye.
