In this study, an up-to-date list of Pentatomidae family, one of the large families of Heteroptera suborder, in Turkiye with the latest taxonomic developments is presented. As a result of the literature review, 61 genera and 174 species/subspecies (2 species only in European Turkiye, 97 species only in Asian Turkiye) belonging to 4 subfamilies and 13 tribes from the Turkish Pentatomidae fauna were determined. Distribution of the species by subfamilies: 14 species of Asopinae (10 in European and 13 in Asian Turkiye), 125 species of Pentatominae (57 in European and 125 in Asian Turkiye), 1 species of Phyllocephalinae (only in Asian Turkiye) and 34 species of Podopinae (10 in European and 33 in Asian Turkiye). Of these species, 172 are native and 2 are introduced. The distributions of these species in Turkiye (in European and Asian Turkiye), Palaearctic distributions and changes in their taxonomic positions are given. In addition, additional records for 53 species, mainly from the Thrace Region, were given from various localities in Thrace and Anatolia. Pentatoma rufipes (Linnaeus, 1758) is first record for the Thrace Region. Four species, which were given in 19th century without a specific locality record, need to be verified. Two species, their names, are excluded from the Turkiye list.
