it is a Tanyproctus sp., a genus very rich of species in Turkey. No recent revision is existing for that fauna and even in Lacroix book (LACROIX M., 2007. Pachydeminae du Monde, Genera and Catalogue (Coleoptera, Melolonthidae))there is no key to middle east Tanyproctus

Thank you very much for your help Marco.

Only three species occurring both in the Levant and in Turkey. In Turkey there are about 20 species recorded, mostly endemic.

they are very few easily recognizable on a picture, but i guess that it comes from the region between Finike and Antalya, and then it is pamphilus Petrovitz

ooops: it comes from Kemer, then no doubt about pamphilus

I write Tanyproctus pamphilus Petrovitz , 1967 - Melolonthidae - Pachydemini

Thank you Denis
