Sultan Sazlığı ve Çevresi (İç Anadolu, Türkiye)'nin Cladocera Faunasının Mevsimsel Değişimi

Abstract

Bu çalışma, 2007 yılında mevsimsel olarak toplanan örneklerle, Sultan Sazlığı ve çevresinde bulunan 8 su bölgesi (Zamantı Irmağı, Homurlu Çayı, Ağcaşar Baraj Gölü, Soysallı Göleti, Çayırözü Göleti, Söbe Gölü, Camız Gölü ve Sultan Sazlığı merkez)'nin Cladocera faunasını belirlemek üzere gerçekleştirilmiştir. Cladocera grubuna ait 13 tür tespit edilmiştir. Her bir su bölgesine tür zenginliği açısından bakıldığında, Söbe Gölü'nden 7 tür, Zamantı Irmağı'ndan 5 tür, Ağcaşar Baraj Gölü, Çayırözü Göleti ve Camız Gölü'nden 3 tür, Homurlu Çayı, Soysallı Göleti ve Sultan Sazlığı Merkez kısmından da 2 tür tespit edilmiştir. İlgili bölgelere ait mevsimsel değişim detayları metin içerisinde belirtilmiştir.

Seasonal Variation of Cladocera Fauna of Sultan Marshes and Its Environment (Central Anatolia, Türkiye)

Abstract

Abstract: In this study, eight water bodies located in Sultan Marshes and its environment (Zamantı River, Homurlu Stream, Ağcaşar Dam Lake, Soysallı Pond, Çayırözü Pond, Lake Söbe, Lake Camız and Sultan Marshes centre) were analyzed in order to determine Cladocera fauna collected from seasonal samples in 2007; and totally thirteen species of Cladocera were identified. In terms of species richness of each water body, 7 species were identified in Lake Söbe besides 5 species in Zamantı River, Ağcaşar Dam Lake and Çayırözü Pond respectively; in addition to these, 3 species were determined in Lake Camız, 2 species in Homurlu Stream, Soysallı Pond and Sultan Marshes center. Detailed results of seasonal variation belonging to the aquatic regions were being given in the text.
