%X Aims: This study conducted in the province of Hatay between June and November 2013. it was aimed to determine the species belonging to Cicadellidae family in an agricultural area where different cultural plants were grown by using light traps. Methods and Results: The Robinso type light trap was placed in an agroecosystem where various plant parcel (maize, cotton, potato, sweetpotato, chickpea, sunflower, daphne) were present in application field of Hatay Mustafa Kemal University, Agricultural Faculty. The cicadellid species obtained from the light traps were identified and counted weekly. Additionally, density of species of cicadellids obtained from the 25-weekly-sampling and their population levels were evaluated. As a result, 30 species have been determined from 18 different genus. It¡¯s known that some of these species are important pest or phytoplasma vectors. Among the obtained species, Cicadulina bipunctella (% 30.45), Zyginidia pullula (%20.75), Balclutha punctata (%15.23) and Psammotettix provincialis (%13.26) were the most abundant species. Conclusions: Thirty species of Cicadellidae family were identified by light trap and it was concluded that this method can be used for the determination of cicadellide species Significance and Impact of the Study: In this study, it has been concluded that light traps can be used as a complementary method in addition to the methods used to determine the species and their populations of Cicadellidae family in certain habitats
