Alcedinidae ailesi, ülkemizde üç yalıçapkını türü ile temsil edilmektedir. Bunlar: Yalıçapkını - Alcedo atthis (Linnaeus, 1758), İzmir Yalıçapkını - Halcyon smyrnensis (Linnaeus, 1758) ve Alaca Yalıçapkını - Ceryle rudis (Linnaeus, 1758). Bu türler üzerindeki en büyük tehdit yaşama ve üreme alanlarının yok olmasıdır. Bu makalede, bu üç türün morfolojik, biyolojik ve ekolojik özellikleri üzerinde durularak, ülkemizde ve dünyadaki dağılım hakkında bilgi verilmiştir.

Kingfishers of Turkey (Coraciiformes: Alcedinidae)

Öz

Three species of kingfishers found in Turkey: Common kingfisher-Alcedo atthis (Linnaeus, 1758), White-throated Kingfisher-Halcyon smyrnensis (Linnaeus, 1758) andPied Kingfisher-Ceryle rudis (Linnaeus, 1758). The greatest threat to these species is the destruction of their habitat and breeding grounds. In this article, the morphological, biological and ecological characteristics of these three species are emphasized and information is given about the distribution in our country and in the world.
