Bu çalışmada, Eğirdir Gölü’nün endemik balık türlerinden Ot Sazanı (Pseudophoxinus egridiri)’nin büyüme özellikleri incelenmiştir. Örnekleme çalışmaları, gölde belirlenen 5 istasyonda Haziran 2010 – Mayıs 2011 tarihleri arasında aylık olarak yürütülmüştür. çalışmaları sonucunda toplam 544 birey elde edilmiştir. Örneklemelerden edilen bireylerin total boyları 2,1 cm ile 10,0 cm, ağırlıkları 0,11...

Mechanisms that regulate parasite populations may influence the evolution of hosts and parasites, as well as the stability of host-parasite dynamics but are still poorly understood. A manipulation experiment on the grooming ability of rodent hosts (Meriones crassus) and flea (Xenopsylla conformis) densities on these hosts successfully disentangled two possible regulating mechanisms: (i) behavio...

The genus Pseudophoxinus Bleeker, 1860 is found in a wide range of habitats in central Anatolia, but it is not well known from a cytogenetic aspect. In this study the first karyotypic description of the spring minnows Pseudophoxinuscrassus (Ladiges, 1960) and Pseudophoxinushittitorum Freyhof & Özulug, 2010 by means of conventional methods (Giemsa staining, C-banding, silver nitrate impregnation...

The effect of salinity on hatching, larval survival and infectivity of Anguillicola crassus was studied under experimental conditions using eggs obtained from naturally infected eels. Egg hatching rate, second-stage larval survival and larval infectivity were maximal in fresh water and declined with increase in salinity. Larvae survived up to 100 d in fresh water, 70 d in 50 % sea water and 40 ...

Kızılca Pond has the most intensive population of Giant Spring Minnow fish (Pseudophoxinus anatolicus). In order to draw attention distribution area Anatolian endemic species, this pond was chosen as study and preliminary carried out on one-time zooplankton species diversity in July 2018. Zooplankton samples were taken from pelagic part lake at 8 m depth (sampling just once depth). Also, collec...
