The name is derived from the name of Ta&amp;scedil;l&amp;imath;çay, A&amp;gbreve;r&amp;imath; from which the types were collected. <b>Type material.</b> Holotype &amp;female;, TR. A&amp;gbreve;r&amp;imath;, Ta&amp;scedil;l&amp;imath;çay, 14.vii.2010, swept from pasture, (M. Do&amp;gbreve;anlar). Paratype &amp;male;, same locality as the holotype, 18.vii.2012. swept from pasture, (M. Do&amp;gbreve;anlar). The types were deposited in Insect Museum of Biological Control Station, Yüre&amp;gbreve;ir, Adana, Turkey (IMBC). <b>Description female.</b> Body length 3.32 mm. Head and mesosoma -black with bluish reflection. Antenna with scape, pedicel and anelli yellow, flagellum testaceous, club slightly paler. Setae on mesosoma pale. Coxae concolorous with body, rest of legs testaceous, wings hyaline, venation brownish testaceous; petiole black, metasoma brown. Similar to <i>C. guenemekensis</i> n. sp. excepts as follows: Head (Fig. 1d) about 1.18 times as wide as mesoscutum, in dorsal view about 2.0 times as broad as long; POL 1.2 OOL; (A) = 3.57; temple 0.43 times as long as eye length, forming 1000 angle with occiput. Eyes 1.62 times as high as wide, separated by 1.38 times their length, malar space 0.25 times eye height. head in dorsal view 1.93x as broad as long; in frontal view 1.3x as width as height; Head in lateral view with lower face receding at an angle of about 650 with respect to upper face. Antenna (Fig. 2d 1) scape about 8.6 times as long as wide; pedicel in lateral view 2.1 as long as wide; combined length of pedicel plus flagellum 0.83 times head width, 1.72x as long as scape; first funicular segment slightly constricted in its proximal half, 1.8x as long as apical wide, 3.6x as long as basal wide; 1.4x as long as pedicellus; following segments distinctly transverse, 6 th 1.5x as broad as long; clava 2.35x as long as broad. Mesosoma about 1.5 times as long as wide, in lateral view moderately bent, dorsellum and propodeum sloping at an angle of about 34° with respect to dorsal plane of mesoscutum and scutellum. Pronotum with pronotal collar about 0.22x as long as mesoscutum, Mesoscuturn about 1.96 times as wide as long; Scutellum as long as wide, Forewing (Fig. 3d) 2.15 times as long as wide, with marginal vein 1.6 times as long as postmarginal vein, 1.45x as long as stigmal vein; the latter 1.12x as long as post marginal vein; angle between stigmal vein and postmarginal vein 450; stigma big, space between post marginal vein and stigma about2.5x length of stigma. Propodeum 0.5 times as long as scutellum; median area 2.6x as wide as long; spiracle separated from posterior edge of metanotum by its longest diameter. Petiole distinctly wider than long. Metasoma (Fig. 4d 1) ellipsoidal, 1.4 times as long as wide, about 1.1 times as wide as mesoscutum and about 1.1x as long as mesosoma; gastral tergites dorsally slightly sunken, first tergite occupying 0.43x length of gaster. <b>Description male</b>. Body length 2.5 mm. Similar to female, except as follows: Head and mesosoma bluish-black, legs pale yellow, except coxae concolorous with body; first gastral tergite with a transverse broad, pale band along its hind margin; other part metallic dark brown to black. Head with antenna (Fig. 2d2) with scape 1.11x as long as eye height and about 4.4 times as long as wide, extending above vertex; ventral shiny. plaque extending whole length of scape; combined length of pedicel plus flagellum 0.92 times as long as head width; pedicel in lateral view 1.6 times as long as wide; flagellum filiform, first funicular segment 1.73 times as long as wide, 1.73 times as long as second segment and 1.37 times as long as pedicel; second funicular segment about 1.14 times as long as wide; F2-F6 equal in length and width; clava acuminate, 2.23 times as long as wide, 1.15x as long as two preceding funicular segments combined.
