Abstract

Hatay-Amanos hattı buzul ve buzul sonrası dönemlerde Afrika ve Eremiyal fauna elemanlarının Anadolu’ya giriş yaptığı en önemli göç yollarından birisidir. Bu nedenle Hatay ilinin faunası zoocoğrafik çalışmalar bakımından oldukça önemli bir yere sahiptir. Buna rağmen Anadolu’daki Ephemeroptera tür çeşitliliğine etki eden bu bölge ile ilgili çalışmalar oldukça eski ve sınırlı kalmıştır.
Hatay ili Ephemeroptera faunasına katkı sağlamak amacıyla gerçekleştirilen bu çalışmada Ballıöz deresinden toplanan Ephemeroptera larvaları (nimf) incelenmiştir. Sonuç olarak 229 örnek incelenmiş ve üç familya, beş cinse ait altı tür teşhis edilmiştir. Teşhis edilen türlerden üç tanesi (Baetis (Baetis) vernus Curtis, 1834, B. (Nigrobaetis) digitatus Bengtsson, 1912 ve Epeorus (Epeorus) zaitzevi Tshernova, 1981) Hatay ilinden ilk defa tespit edilmiştir.

Distribution of some Ephemeroptera species to the north and south from a gateway in Anatolia: With contributions to the Ephemeroptera fauna of Hatay province

Abstract

The Hatay-Amanos line is one of the most important migration routes through which African and Eremial fauna elements entered Anatolia during glacial and post-glacial periods. Therefore, the fauna of Hatay province has a very important place in terms of zoogeographical studies. Despite this, faunistic studies on this region, which affects the Ephemeroptera species diversity in Anatolia, are quite outdated and limited. This study, conducted to contribute to the knowledge of Ephemeroptera fauna in Hatay province, examined mayfly larvae (nymphs) collected from four different localities along Ballıöz creek. As a result, six taxa belonging to five genera from three families were identified out of 229 examined specimens. Three of the identified species (Baetis (Baetis) vernus Curtis, 1834; B. (Nigrobaetis) digitatus Bengtsson, 1912 and Epeorus (Epeorus) zaitzevi Tshernova, 1981) were reported for the first time from Hatay province.
