Key words: new species, new subspecies, taxonomy, Cerambycidae, Lamiinae, Dorcadion, Cribridorcadion, Turkey.
Abstract: Dorcadion (Cribridorcadion) macropus Kraatz, 1873, sp. rest. is redescribed with lectotype designation and restored as valid species name with 4 synonyms: obscurans Pic, 1892 (holotype is figured); amasinum Pic, 1898; atripes Reitter, 1900 (holotype is figured); subobesum Pic, 1942 (syntype female is figured, males were not found). Lectotypes are also designated for D. (C.) micans Thomson, 1867 and D. sericatulum Kraatz, 1873 (a synonym of D. micans). Three new species and 4 new subspecies are described: D. (C.) kartalense sp. n. from Eskisehir prov. (Kartal Gecidi), D. (C.) paramicans sp. n. from Qorum prov. and north Yozgat prov., D. (C.) rarepunctatum sp. n. from Kayseri prov. (about 4km westwards Sariz), D. (C.) paramicans keskiense ssp. n. from Kirikkale prov.(Keskin), D. (C.) paramicans kalechikense ssp. n. from Ankara prov. (Kozayagi NW Kalecik), D. (C.) menradi aksarayense ssp. n. from E Aksaray prov.(Gukunkaya) and Konya prov. (Dinek), D. (C.) pittinorum paraullrichi ssp. n. from Qorum prov. (Suluklu, north-eastwards Mecitozu and Mecitozu env. Dorcadion (C.) subvestitum K. Daniel, 1900 and D. (C.) niksarense Bernhauer & Peks, 2013 are downgraded to subspecies level Dorcadion (C.) micans subvestitum K. Daniel, 1900, stat. nov. and D. (C.) tokatense niksarense Bernhauer & Peks, 2013, stat. nov. and Dorcadion (C.) tokatense tokatense Pic, 1901 is accepted. D. (C.) micans susheriense Breuning, 1970 (described as D. sinopense susheriense Breuning, 1970) and D. (C.) catenatum subdivisum Breuning, 1955 are upgraded to species level: D. (C.) susheriense Breuning, 1970, stat. nov. and D. (C.) subdivisum Breuning, 1955, stat. nov.
Recently I've received a lot of materials on Turkish Dorcadion for study from Mr. W. Heinz (mostly of the very complicated D. cinerarium-group). Now all materials are identified, and several series are described as new taxons. Some specimens
from other collections were also used in the article.

Dorcadion micans Thomson, 1867: 61 - "Armenien" - Anatolia; Kraatz, 1873: 101.
Dorcadion (Cribridorcadion) micans, Lazarev, 2009: 198-199 - "Many Dorcadion populations from Turkey and North Iran (originally described as different species) were wrongly regarded as different forms of D. cinerarium (D. micans Thomson, 1867, D. sericatulum Kraatz, 1873, D. macropus Kraatz, 1873), as D. cinerarium does not penetrate already in Transcaucasia"; 2012: ; Danilevsky, 2010: 250, part. - Turkey; Ozdikmen, 2010: 448, part. - "Type loc.: Turkey: Bolkar Mts."; 2012: 769 - ""Armenia" (clearly N Turkey)".
Type locality. Central Anatolia, provinces: Eskisehir, Ankara, Kirikkale, Aksaray.
"Armenia" sensu Thomson (1867) is about whole Anatolia. For example Docadion weyersi Thomson, 1867 (= weyersi Fairmaire, 1866) was also described from "Armenia", but known from west Anatolia only.
The type of the species is not known. Certain authors accepted the type locality in rather different areas from Taurus Mts (Ozdikmen, 2010: 448 - "Bolkar Mts") to "clearly N Turkey" (Ozdikmen, 2012: 769).
Here the type locality is preliminary accepted as Central Anatolia (provinces: Eskisehir, Ankara, Kirikkale, Aksaray), because of coincidence of local populations with original description and good preservation of traditional valid names.
Small beetles, with totally red antennae and legs (including tarsi); lateral pronotal spines very short, rounded; white pronotal line very narrow or indistinct; elytra regularly oval, with fine punctation, in males without dense pubescence, more or less glabrous with white sutural line accompanied by black stripes; body length in males: 9.012 mm, in females: 10.5-14.0 mm; body width in males: 3.3-4.3 mm, in females: 4.3-5.7 mm.
Distribution. Turkey; the species is definitely known from Eskisehir (Bos-Dagh) and Ankara (Yenice) provinces. It was also recorded from Amasia.

Dorcadion (Cribridorcadion) menradi aksarayense ssp. n. Figs 28-30
Type locality. Turkey: E Aksaray prov., Gukunkaya, 1200 m
The taxon is close to Dorcadion menradi menradi Holzschuh, 1989 described from two rather distant localities in "Prov. Mara§": Afçin environs and "zwischen Elbistan und Matatya". A good series
of the nominative subspecies is available in my disposal from about second locality of the original description (12 males, 12 females, Ozbek koyu, 27km E Elbistan, Kahramanmaras, 15.4.1992, Heinz leg. - about 38°12'47"N, 37°28'13"E, 1400 m).
The new taxon is similar to the nominative subspecies by body size, body shape, color of legs (red), elytral and pronotal pubescence (glabrous in males with white sutural stripe accompanied by black pubescence), presence of two forms of females (autochromal and androchromal). It strongly differs by usually coarse elytral punctation arranged in longitudinal rows along shallow furrows more distinct in females; antennae in the nominative subspecies usually totally rather dark, or black with red 1st joint dark, but very rare several first joints are dark-red; antennae in the new subspecies could be also totally rather dark, but often several first joints are light-red, sometimes only 1st joint is red; females usually autochromal, brown with distinct pale dorsal, elytral lines; one female from the type series is androchromal (glabrous), one is transitional with very fine scattered elytral pubescence; body length in males: 11.0-12.0 mm, width: 3.9-4.3 mm; body length in females: 11.2-12.3 mm, width: 4.8-5.3 mm.
Materials. Holotype, male, E Aksaray prov., Gukunkaya, 1200 m, 24.4.1981, W.Heinz - ML; 9 paratypes: 4 males, 5 females with same label - ML, WH; 1 female, Konya prov., Dinek, 1100m, 26.4.1996, W.Heinz - MD.
Distribution. Turkey, Central Anatolia: E Aksaray prov., Gukunkaya, 1200 m, about 38°21'57"N, 34° 9'58"E; Konya prov., Dinek, 1100 m, about 37°19'20"N, 2°38'58"E.
Dorcadion (Cribridorcadion) tokatense Pic, 1901 Figs 31-33
Dorcadion impressicolle var. tokatense Pic, 1901: 12 [a single female] -"Tokat"

362, part. (= var. tokatense Pic). Dorcadion (Cribridorcadion) micans micans, Danilevsky, 2010: 250, part. (= tokatense Pic).
Dorcadion (Cribridorcadion) niksarense Bernhauer & Peks, 2013: 327 -"Türkei, 11 km n. Niksar, 1100 m", Tokat prov.
Type locality. Turkey, Tokat prov. - according to the original description.
The taxon was described on the base of a single androchromal female, which made difficult the exact identification of the populations from Tokat province. Never the less I accept as typical two populations from the nearest Tokat environs. All males with glabrous shining elytra, with narrow white sutural and marginal stripes similar to D. micans Kr., but pronotal punctation much more distinct and regular, thoracic lateral tubercles more angulated, elytral furrows obliterated without big punctures; body length in males: 9.510.4 mm, width: 3.6-4.4 mm; body length in females: 10.3-11.0 mm, width: 4.2-4.8 mm.
Another taxon of same group was described from Tokat province: D. (C.) niksarense Bernhauer & Peks, 2013, but unfortunately the authors compared in with D. cinerarium (Fabricius, 1787) [with unknown origin] and not mentioned Dorcadion tokatense Pic, 1901. In fact the females of D. niksarense agree good enough with the original description of the holotype female of D. tokatense Pic, as well as a glabrous female from near Tokat. In general type series of D. niksarense differs from the specimens of D. tokatense from near Tokat by several small characters: elytra with distinct longitudinal furrows, pronotum less punctated, autochromal females absent. So, I accept here the taxon from near Niksar as Dorcadion tokatense niksarense Bernhauer & Peks, 2013, stat. nov., and the populations from near Tokat as Dorcadion tokatense tokatense Pic, 1901.

Dorcadion (Pedestredorcadion) sinopense susheriense Breuning, 1970: 97 -
"sur le Col, au sud de Susheri [Suçehri], 1700 m alt." Dorcadion cinerarium susheriense, Braun, 1979: 81 - "Anmerkung des Verfassers: Die Arbeit bezieht sich nicht auf D. sinopense ssp. susheriense, sondern auf D. cinerarium ssp. susheriense (handschriftliche Korrektur Breunings s in meinem Separatum)". Dorcadion (Cribridorcadion) micans susheriense, Danilevsky, 2010: 250.
According to the original description the attribution of the taxon to D. sinopense was just a misprint by Breuning, as he wrote: "comme m. caucasicum Kuest.", so he regarded it as D. cinerarium F., that was accepted by Braun (1979).
The placement of the taxon inside D. micans by Danilevsky (2010) was just a formal action, based on my opinion (Lazarev, 2012) that D. cinerarium absent in Turkey.
I was not able to study the types of D. sinopense susheriense Breuning, 1970. In fact the area of D. micans strongly distant from the locality of the taxon - Suçehri (40°10'N, 38°05'E). According to the original description the taxon is close to D. cinerarium (as "m. caucasicum"), but characterized by rather smooth pronotum and
elytra, and so similar to Caucasian high mountain group of species around D. sisianense Lazarev, 2009 and D. megriense Lazarev, 2009). Now it must be accepted as a species: D. (C.) susheriense Breuning, 1970, stat. nov.

Dorcadion (Cribridorcadion) divisum subdivisum, Danilevsky, 2010: 246. Dorcadion (Cribridorcadion) catenatum subdivisum, Danilevsky, 2012: 115.
The species has no connection with catenatum [= divisum]-group of species because of normal small regular punctation of pronotum with very fine white central stripe, while in the taxons close to D. catenatum Waltl, 1838 [= divisum Germar, 1839] pronotum usually has central longitudinal furrow surrounded by velvety black stripes and very strong big punctation laterally; lateral thoracic tubercle are rounded in D. subdivisum, while in species close to D. catenatum lateral thoracic tubercles look like short spines. Besides the areas of all species of catenatum [divisum]-group are situated in the west part of Anatolia, while D. subdivisum is known from Ankara prov. only. The species looks very similar to Armenian D. daratshitshagi Suvorov, 1915 with same elytral design, that is about same as in males of D. sareptanum Kraatz, 1873. Materials. 7 males [length: 9.5-12.0 mm], 1 female [length: 11.1 mm], Ankara prov., 2km W Hirfanli (about 39°16'27"N, 33°30'28"E) 950 m, 24.4.1992, Heinz leg. - ML & MD.
