Clytra novempunctata, Labidostomis longimana, L. rufa, Smaragdina limbata mainly feed on new shoots and leaves. Cerambyx carinatus, C. welensii, Prionus coriarius feed in the wood tissue. Tatianaerhynchites aequatus and Rhynchites smyrnensis are mostly found on the fruit and feeds on the fruit, and where it feeds, it causes glue on the fruit. It has been determined that Tropinota hirta and Oxythyrea cinctella feed on flowers and pollen. It was seen that Bostrichus capucinus and Scobicia chevrieri feed on wood tissue, Teratolytta dives, Eolydus atripes feed on leaves. Orsodacne variabilis feed on flowers, anter, flament, and ovary. This study determined for the first time that B. capucinus, S. chevrieri, C. carinatus, C. welensii, P. coriarius, C. novempunctata, C. numidicus, Scolytus intricatus, Scolytus kirschii, T. dives, E. atripes ve O. variabilis species feed on almond fields. Apart from these species, all of the identified species were detected only and did not show any biological activity.
