Abstract
Otiorhynchus (Tecutinus) gultekini sp. nov. from Geyik Dağları and O. (Tecutinus) marggii sp. nov. from Bey Dağları, both from south-western Turkey, are described. Otiorhynchus gultekini sp. nov. is close to O. riedeli Braun, 1989 and O. ikisderensis Smreczyński, 1970 whereas O. marggii sp. nov. is morphologically close to O. brevicornis Boheman, 1842 and O. staveni Braun, 2000. All species of the subgenus are keyed and mapped.
