Abstract :In this study, the presence of some species of the Bruchidae family, the effects of those species to the quality and quantity of the seeds, and the storage conditions were investigated in dried legume seeds taken from farmers stores in both Denizli and Uşak Provinces. The study was carried out in 17 villages of 9 different towns of Denizli Province and in 23 villages of 6 different towns of Uşak Province, between the years 2001 and 2002. Adults obtained from the damaged seeds were identified to belong to species of Callosobruchus masculatus (Fabricius), Acanthoscelides obtectus (Say) and Bruchus emarginatus Allard. It was determined that the average number of adults in both Denizli and Uşak samples was highest in chickpea and bean in 500 gr sample.Keywords : Bruchidae, depolanmış baklagil, Denizli, Uşak, Türkiye.
