Özet: Studies on the artichoke plantations in Çanakkale Province were implemented in the Central and Ezine Districts in the years 2017 and 2018. Presence of all the three pests were detected in these studies. It was found that larvae of Terellia fuscicornis advanced to the platform part of the plant and created intense damages on seeds. After completing their development, the larvae fix themselves within the platform of the head part of the artichoke plant and transform into pupae. Numbers of larvae and pupa found in the head parts of the artichoke plant ranged between 3 and 9. It was found in the studies carried out in fields that contamination rate on platform parts of the artichoke reached 20.9% and 45.2%. It was observed that larvae of Acanthiophilus helianthi was between the flowers in the head part of the artichoke plant and caused damage there. It was also found that larvae caused less damage in the flower part; however, they advanced to the platform part later and caused damage on mature and immature seed capsules. Numbers of larvae and pupa found in the head parts of the artichoke plant ranged between 1 and 2. It was found in the studies carried out in fields that contamination rate on   the artichoke reached 8.8% and 15.47%.Cassida rubiginosa however, was found as the cause of intense damages on the leaves of the artichoke plant; and it also caused damages at the outer parts of flowers that are not opened yet, but such damage was much less.
