Abstract

This study was conducted to determine the substrate preferences of hydroid polyps sampled in eight different stations on the coastline of Antalya Bay. Sampling was performed by freedive to identify the hydroid polyp fauna and certain physicochemical (salinity, temperature, dissolved oxygen, electrical conductivity, chl-a) and biological characteristics were determined. A total of 35 hydroid species were identified as epiphytic, epilithic and epizoic in the region.
The most commonly preferred substrates by the species were; rocks (20 species), Ellisolandia elongata (J.Ellis & Solander) K.R.Hind & G.W.Saunders, 2013 (18 species), Balanus sp. Costa, 1778 (9 species), macroalgae Posidonia oceanica (Linnaeus) Delile, 1813, and leaves (8 species). Among all species, one species prefers just epilithic substrates, four species prefer only epizoic substrates, and seven species prefer only epiphytic substrates. Acauloides ammisatum, Eudendrium sp., Turritopsis. nutricula, Pennaria. disticha, Clytia noliformis, Halecium tenellum, Halopteris diaphana, Dynamena disticha and Salacia desmoides are found in all substrate types (EP,EZ,EL).

Antalya Körfezi'nde Hidrozoan Poliplerinin (Cnidaria) Substrat Seçim Özellikleri

Abstract

Bu çalışma, Antalya Körfezi kıyısındaki sekiz farklı istasyondan örneklenen hidroid poliplerinin substrat tercihlerini belirlemek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Örneklemeler, serbest dalış yapan dalgıçlar tarafından gerçekleştirilmiş olup, hidroid polip faunasını ve bazı fizikokimyasal ve biyolojik özellikler (tuzluluk, sıcaklık, çözünmüş oksijen, elektriksel iletkenlik, klorofil-a) belirlenmiştir. Bölgede epifitik, epilitik ve epizoik olarak tanımlanan toplam 35 hidroid türü tespit edilmiştir. Türler tarafından en çok tercih edilen substratlar şunlardır: kayalar (20 tür), Ellisolandia elongata (J.Ellis & Solander) K.R.Hind & G.W.Saunders, 2013 (18 tür) ve Balanus sp. Costa, 1778 (9 tür) ile Posidonia oceanica (Linnaeus) Delile, 1813 makroalginin yaprakları (8 tür). Tüm türler arasında, bir tür sadece epilitik substratları tercih ederken, dört tür sadece epizoik substratları tercih ettiği ve yedi türün de sadece epifitik substratları tercih ettiği belirlenmiştir. Acauloides ammisatum, Eudendrium sp., Turritopsis. nutricula, Pennaria. disticha, Clytia noliformis, Halecium tenellum, Halopteris diaphana, Dynamena disticha ve Salacia desmoides türleri, tüm substrat türlerini tercih ettikleri (EP, EZ, EL) belirlenmiştir.
