Abstract
Tephritis Latreille 1804 is one of the largest genera of Tephritini (Diptera: Tephritidae). In this study, undescribed specimens of Tephritis were collected from Bayburt province of Turkey and described as Tephritis kutuki sp. nov. The paper presents a diagnosis, description and also morphological characteristic figures of the new species. The holotype and paratypes are pinned and deposited in the collection of the Entomology Laboratory, Department of Biology, Faculty of Arts and Sciences, Gaziantep University, Gaziantep, Turkey (GUGT).
