New records for the freshwater algal flora of Turkey

Abstract

The algal samples were taken from Koçdüzü Great Lake on 21 August 2019 and from Adsız Pond on 28 August 2020. The algal samples were collected from epipelic and epiphytic habitats and observed under light microscope for their morphometric characteristics based identification. Palmodictyon varium (Nägeli) Lemmermann (Chlorophyta) and Isthmochloron trispinatum (West & G.S.West) Skuja (Ocrophyta) species were assessed as a new records for the freshwater algal flora of Turkey. In this paper, morphotaxonomy, ecology, and geographic distribution of each species is discussed in detail and it has been also recorded the geographic distribution of the species in Turkey.

Türkiye’nin tatlısu alg florası için yeni kayıtlar

Abstract

Alg örnekleri 21 Ağustos 2019'da Koçdüzü Büyük Gölü'nden ve 28 Ağustos 2020'de Adsız Gölet’ten alınmıştır. Alg örnekleri epipelik ve epifitik habitatlardan toplanmış ve morfometrik özelliklerine dayalı tanımlamaları için ışık mikroskobunda gözlemlenmiştir. Palmodictyon varium (Nägeli) Lemmermann (Chlorophyta) ve Isthmochloron trispinatum (West & G.S.West) Skuja (Ocrophyta) türleri Türkiye tatlısu alg florası için yeni kayıt olarak değerlendirilmiştir. Bu yazıda her bir türün morfotaksonomisi, ekolojisi ve coğrafik yayılışları ayrıntılı olarak ele alınmış ve türlerin Türkiye'deki coğrafi yayılışları da kaydedilmiştir.
