A checklist for zooplankton (Rotifera, Copepoda, Cladocera) of European Turkey inland waters

Ege Journal of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences, 2014

Türkiye'nin Avrupa kısmı, Avrupa ile Asya kıtalar arasında geçiş bölgesi oluşturması nedeniyle her iki kıtanında türlerine ev sahipliği yapmaktadır. Ancak şu ana kadar Anadoludan ayrı olarak Türkiye Avrupası zooplanktonik organizmaların tür listesi çıkarılmamıştır. Bu nedenle bölgede bu güne kadar bu konuda yapılan araştırmaların tümü incelenmiştir. 1940'tan bu yana yapılan araştırmaların incelenmesi sonucunda 138 Rotifera, 53 Copepoda ve 65 Cladocera olmak üzere 256 tür listelenmiştir.

A Checklist for Zooplankton of Eastern and Southeastern Anatolia Regions (Turkey)

A checklist on Turkey zooplankton was published by Ustaoğlu in 2004 and totaly 427 species were reported. Among the zooplankton species in this checklist, 229 species recorded from Rotifera, 106 from Copepoda and 92 from Cladocera. The checklist of Rotifera published in 2012, reported 341 rotifer taxa. During the years since the last checklist process, many studies especially in Eastern and Southeastern Anatolia region of Turkey have been carried out and in this study we have prepared a current zooplankton checklist of Turkish inland waters in these regions. In all these regions 185 zooplankton species have been recorded to date.

The zooplankton composition of Lake Ladik (Samsun, Turkey)

TURKISH JOURNAL OF ZOOLOGY, 2015

Introduction Zooplankton plays an important role in aquatic ecosystems (Baloch et al., 2005). Zooplankton species have been used as an indicator of the trophic states of lakes (El-Bassat and Taylor, 2007; Ahangar et al., 2012) because of their sensitivity to any ecological change in water bodies (Güher et al., 2011). Additionally, Saksena (1987) reported that zooplankton should be considered as an indicator of water quality. Baloch and Suzuki (2009) concluded that Cladocera and Rotifera dominate eutrophic lakes, whereas Copepoda dominates oligotrophic lakes. Many studies on zooplankton communities of inland water bodies have been carried out in Turkey (e.g.

A Study on Zooplankton Fauna and Some Water Quality Parameters of Kozan Dam Lake (Adana, Turkey)

Journal of Limnology and Freshwater Fisheries Research, 2019

Some water quality parameters (Secchi disk depth, water temperature, dissolved oxygen, pH, conductivity, chlorophyll a, NO2-N, NO3-N, NH4-N, PO4-P) and zooplankton fauna were determined in the Kozan Dam Lake. While the quality of the reservoir water was first class water in terms of temperature, dissolved oxygen, NH4-N, PO4-P, it was second-class water in terms of conductivity, pH, NO3-N. In total, 50 zooplankton species belonging to 26 families were determined (29 species belonging to 17 families from Rotifera, 15 species belonging to 7 families from Cladocera and 6 species belonging to 2 families from Copepoda). Brachionidae (Rotifera) was the most species rich family with 7 species, followed by Chydoridae (Cladocera) and Cyclopidae (Copepoda) with 6 and 5 species respectively. The most dominant species were Synchaeta pectinata (38.33%) from Rotifera, Bosmina longirostris (5.71%) from Cladocera and Cyclops vicinus (0.67%) from Copepoda. At the same time, the species found in every month were Asplanchna priodonta, Polyarthra dolichoptera, Bosmina longirostris, Ceriodaphnia pulchella, Cyclops vicinus and Diacyclops bicuspidatus. In the study, Rotifera was the most abundant group with 67%, followed by Cladocera with 29% and Copepoda with 4%. On the other hand, total Rotifera was found mostly in December (10099 individual/ m 3), Cladocera in January (4928 ind./m 3) and Copepoda in September (1091 ind./m 3).

A New Rotifer Species for Turkish Inland Waters

2015

The zooplankton fauna of Lake Sapanca (Turkey) was studied during January 2009-May 2010 of monthly intervals. One Rotifera species, Ploesoma truncatum (Levander, 1894) is a new record for the Turkish inland waters fauna.

Rotifer fauna of Lake Yayla (Denizli-Turkey)

Ege Journal of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences, 2016

Ten monogonont rotifer species new for the Turkish fauna discovered in 2007 are discussed: Cephalodella delicata Wulfert, C. cf. forceps Donner, C. misgurnus Wulfert, Dipleuchlanis propatula (Gosse), Encentrum limicola Otto, E. mustela (Milne), Lecane aculeate (Jakubski), L. paradoxa (Steinecke), Notommata glyphura Wulfert, and Proales similis de Beauchamp. Eight are widely distributed, but C. cf. forceps Donner and L. paradoxa (Steinecke) have been recorded only from the Palearctic. Important parts of the trophi structure of some species are shown using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Dissolved oxygen, electrical conductivity, pH, and water temperature were also measured.

Structure and spatial distribution of the Rotifera assemblages in Kırklareli Reservoir (Kırklareil/Turkey)

Acta aquatica turcica, 2022

This study was carried out to determine the diversity, abundance, and seasonal distribution of Rotifera in Kırklareli Reservoir. Rotifera samples were collected from May 2018 to April 2019 at three stations in the reservoir and some water quality parameters were measured. The qualitative evaluation of the samples revealed the presence of 39 species in the reservoir. The quantitative evaluation of the samples showed that 24727 ind/m³ Rotifera on average was found in the reservoir. The maximum organism number was found in the summer season (45690 ind/m 3). The average 27.3 % of the total annual Rotifera abundance was composed of Kellicottia longispina in Kırklareli Reservoir followed by Polyarthra dolichoptera (24.6 %), Lecane luna (6.8 %), Asplanchna priodonta (6.4%), Synchaeta oblonga (5.3%) and Synchaeta pectinate (4.9 %). Asplanchna priodonta, Synchaeta oblonga, Synchaeta pectinata, Keratella cochlearis, Keratella quadrata, Polyarthra dolichoptera, Polyarthra vulgaris and Mytilina mucronata were found the most common species in the reservoir. The water quality parameters measured in the reservoir were detected among the acceptable values to support aquatic life, especially the Rotifera community. The Rotifera densities and abundance showed a positive correlation with water temperature and Chlorophyll-a. According to these results, we conclude that Kırklareli Reservoir has an oligomesotrophic character in terms of the Rotifera fauna and the physicochemical parameters. Keywords  Rotifera  Diversity  Seasonal distribution  Water quality  Reservoir Özet: Bu çalışma, Kırklareli Baraj Gölü'nün Rotifera çeşitliliğini ve mevsimsel dağılımını belirlemek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Mayıs 2018 ile Nisan 2019' tarihleri arasında gölde belirlenen üç istasyonda Rotifera örnekleri toplanmış ve bazı çevresel parametreler ölçülmüştür. Rotifera örneklerin kalitatif değerlendirmesinde 39 Rotifera türü belirlenirken kantitatif değerlendirmeler sonucunda baraj gölünde yıllık ortalama 24727 ind/m³ Rotifera tespit edilmiştir.

Asplanchna priodonta, Synchaeta oblonga, Synchaeta pectinata, Keratella cochlearis, Keratella quadrata, Polyarthra dolichoptera, Polyarthra vulgaris ve Mytilina mucronata rezervuarda en yaygın türler olarak bulunmuştur. Rezervuarda ölçülen çevresel parametreler, başta Rotifera faunası olmak üzere sucul yaşamı desteklemek için kabul edilebilir değerler arasında tespit edilmiştir. Rotifera yoğunluğu ve bolluğu, su sıcaklığı ve Klorofil-a ile pozitif korelasyon göstermiştir. Bu sonuçlara göre Kırklareli Rezervuarının Rotifera faunası ve fizikokimyasal parametreler açısından oligomezotrofik bir karaktere sahip olduğu sonucuna varılmıştır.

Zooplankton of Sakaryabaşi-West Pond, Central Anatolia

2020

The study was conducted between March 2017 and February 2018 to determine the effects various applications and environmental impacts on zooplankton composition in Sakaryabaşı-West Pond. Zooplankton samples were monthly collected with plankton net vertically and horizontally from two stations as triplicated. At the time of sampling, water temperature, dissolved oxygen, pH, electrical conductivity, water depth and light transparency were measured at the stations. Rotifera was the highest proportion in the pond during the study, followed by Copepoda and Cladocera, respectively. At this research, 11 families from Rotifera, 22 species from Cladocera, 1 family from Cladocera, 1 family from Copepoda. Proportionally most common species were Lepadella patella (6.38%), Mytilina ventralis (5.32%), Lecane lunaris (4.79%) from Rotifera; Alona rectangula (8.51%) from Cladocera. Cyclopoidae copepods was formed as adults (17.55%), nauplii (25.53%). During the study period the average zooplankton ab...
