In this study, interstitial and phytal harpacticoid copepods distributed along the mediolittoral zone of the Biga Peninsula were investigated. The samplings were made from 26 different stations seasonally between April - 2016, February - 2017. As a result, 73 species and subspecies belonging to 46 genera within 17 families were identified. In addition, 4 genera (Troglophonte, Psammastacus, Stereoxiphos and Pteropsyllus) and 20 species/subspecies (Ameira divagans, Ameira reducta, Filexilia intermedia, Nitokra sewelli, Noodtiella enertha, Noodtiella intermedia, Noodtiella wellsi, Glabrotelson sp., Asellopsis intermedia, Echinolaophonte minuta, Heterolaophonte brevipes, Klieonychocamptus klei confluens, Troglophonte sp., Psammastacus confluens, Stereoxiphos operculatus, Schizopera minuta, Emertonia constricta orotavae, Thalestrella sp., Phyllopodopsyllus berrieri and Pteropsyllus plebeius furcatus) are new records for the Turkish fauna. Besides, all identified taxa are new records for the Biga Peninsula.

Biga Yarımadası (Çanakkale, Türkiye) mediolitoral bölgesinin kumiçi ve fital Harpacticoid (Copepoda, Harpacticoida) faunası

Öz

Bu çalışmada, Biga Yarımadası'nın mediolitoral bölgesinde yayılış gösteren kumiçi ve fital harpaktikoid kopepodlar incelenmiştir. Örneklemeler Nisan – 2016, Şubat – 2017 tarihleri arasında 26 farklı istasyondan mevsimsel olarak yapılmıştır. Bu çalışma sonucunda 17 familya içerisinde 46 cinse ait 73 tür ve alttür tespit edilmiştir. Ek olarak 4 cins (Troglophonte, Psammastacus, Stereoxiphos ve Pteropsyllus) ve 20 tür/alttür (Ameira divagans, Ameira reducta, Filexilia intermedia, Nitokra sewelli, Noodtiella enertha, Noodtiella intermedia, Noodtiella wellsi, Glabrotelson sp., Asellopsis intermedia, Echinolaophonte minuta, Heterolaophonte brevipes, Klieonychocamptus klei confluens, Troglophonte sp., Psammastacus confluens, Stereoxiphos operculatus, Schizopera minuta, Emertonia constricta orotavae, Thalestrella sp., Phyllopodopsyllus berrieri ve Pteropsyllus plebeius furcatus) Türkiye faunası için yeni kayıttır. Ayrıca tespit edilen tüm taksonlar Biga Yarımadası için de yeni kayıt niteliğindedir.
