Abstract
This faunistic study on the Curculionoidea was conducted during 2002-04 in almond orchards in the South-eastern and Eastern Anatolia Regions of Turkey. Fifty four species from the superfamily Curculionoidea (Rhynchitidae - 2, Brentidae - 20, Curculionidae - 30 and Scolytidae - 2) were collected from almond trees. The majority of these species were found on almonds casually. Among these species, nine cause damage to almond trees. Of these nine species, four feed in fruit, two on wood and three feed on leaves of almond trees.
