Popis: This study was carried out to determine the species belonging to the order Hymenoptera in organic cherry (Prunus avium L.) orchards in Artuklu and Yeşilli districts of Mardin province, Turkey. The study was carried out in 6 orchards once a week between May and October 2017. The wine fattening trap method was used for the collection of insect species. As a result of the study, 6 species and 3 subspecies from 5 families belonging to the superfamilies Apoidea and Vespoidea (Hymenoptera) were determined. These are Vespula germanica (Fabricius, 1793), Polistes bucharensis Erichson, 1849, Eustenancistrocerus amadanensis amadanensis (de Saussure, 1856), Euodynerus disconotatus disconotatus (Lichtenstein, 1884) from Vespidae, Halictus sp. and Lasioglossum sp. from Halictidae, Osmia caerulescens (Linnaeus, 1758) from Megachilidae, Andrena sp. from Andrenidae and Apis mellifera (Linnaeus, 1758) from Apidae. It was determined that A. mellifera and V. germanica were more common and intense than other species. In addition, 5 of the identified species are the first record for Mardin province fauna.
