Abstract

This study was carried out to determine the Hirudinea fauna in Lake Karagöl (Sındırgı-Balıkesir, Türkiye) and Lake Gölcük (Bigadiç-Balıkesir, Türkiye), which has not been found in any limnological studies before. It was determined the species of Placobdella costata, Helobdella stagnalis, Hirudo verbana, Haemopis sanguisuga and Dina punctata in Lake Karagöl and P. costata, Glossiphonia concolor, Dina lineata and D. punctata in Lake Gölcük. According to the findings of the present study, Dina punctata was reported for the first time in the Turkish Hirudinea fauna.

Abstract

Bu çalışma, daha önce herhangi bir limnolojik çalışmaya rastlanmayan Karagöl (Sındırgı-Balıkesir) ve Gölcük Gölü (Bigadiç-Balıkesir)’nün Hirudinea faunasının belirlenmesi amacıyla yapılmıştır. Çalışma ile Karagöl’de Placobdella costata, Helobdella stagnalis, Hirudo verbana, Haemopis sanguisuga ve Dina punctata, Gölcük Gölü’nde ise P. costata, Glossiphonia concolor, Dina lineata ve D. punctata türleri tespit edilmiştir. Bu türlerden D. punctata Türkiye Hirudinea faunası için ilk kez rapor edilmiştir.
