Özet

We examined cave crickets in southern Anatolian and northern Syrian in areas where Martínez de la Escalera collected at the end of the 19th century and compared our material with type material. We found a new species of the genus Dolichopoda Bolívar, 1880, D. rampinii Taylan & Şirin sp. n. from Anatolia (Hatay province). Additionally, some taxonomical notes and new figures of both sexes for D. pusilla Bolívar, 1899 and D. aranea Bolívar, 1899 are given according to syntype specimens. The new species, which is collected from Akbez cave (Turkey, Hatay province). Our data obtained from the type specimens indicates the validation of D. pusilla and D. aranea. Dolichopoda pusilla has to be removed from the Turkish list, as the collection locality is now located in Syria. http://www.zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:6D9B7C90-2835-4B2B-A241-1AE0F3234E03.
