Abstract

A new species of hydrophiloid beetles, Helophorus (Orphelophorus) turca sp. n., is described from high altitude in northern Anatolia (Asiatic Turkey) and compared with the two known species of the genus. Diagnostic characters are supported with electron micrographs. The key to the subgenera of Angus (1992) is briefly discussed.
