Abstract

Anadolu faunası akrep çeşitliliği bakımından oldukça zengindir. Yapılan çalışmalar ile her geçen gün faunaya yeni türler eklenmektedir. Ancak teşhis sürecinde bazı hatalar yapılabilmekte ve Euscorpius soyunda bulunan bazı farklı türler yalnızca geleneksel yöntemler ile teşhis edilmeye çalışıldığında aynı tür olarak da tanımlanabilmektedirler. Yaptığımız bu çalışmada Ankara Soğuksu Milli Parkından toplanan 10 akrep örneği hem geleneksel hem de moleküler düzeyde tanımlanmaya çalışılmıştır. Bir DNA barkod geni olarak kullanılan mitokondrial sitokrom oksidaz subunit I (COI) ile yapılan moleküler analizde akrep türlerinin Euscorpius phrygius (Bonacina, 1980) oldukları tespit edilmiştir.

Phylogenetic analysis of Euscorpius phrygius Bonacina, 1980 (Scorpiones: Euscorpiidae) distributed in Turkey

Abstract

Anatolian fauna is very rich in terms of scorpion diversity. New species are added to the fauna day by day in line with the new studies. Some mistakes can be made during identification process and even some different species of the Euscorpius lineage can be defined as the same species if they are characterized using solely conventional methods. The scorpion specimens were examined using both conventional and molecular methods collected from Ankara Soğuksu National Park. As a result of molecular analysis using Mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI) gene as a DNA barcoding, the scorpion species in this study were identified as being Euscorpius phrygius (Bonacina, 1980).
