Something around
Gonia picea (difficult genus so no sure) - please more information with your photos - like what date and what habitat/altitude etc? ;)

This photo was taken in March.
Habitat: Near a small river and a septik tank of a village.
Elevation is 1100-1200 m. On the hills there is a Querqus forest.

OK, then I think
Gonia picea (a dark, early-spring species) is most likely but we must wait for Theo to double-check because it is a very difficult genus and you probably have species that I am unaware of :)

Sorry, but I'm not going to call names to Turkish Gonia, genus is much too complicated in the Mediterrean region.
Start collecting !
