Abstract

Kızılca Pond has the most intensive population of Giant Spring Minnow fish (Pseudophoxinus anatolicus). In order to draw attention to the distribution area of the Anatolian endemic species, this pond was chosen as the study area and this preliminary study was carried out on one-time zooplankton species diversity in July 2018. Zooplankton samples were taken from the pelagic part of the lake at 8 m depth (sampling just once from this depth). Also, samples were collected with Hydro-Bios model plankton net with 55 μm mesh size. Physicochemical parameters of the lake (pH, conductivity,water temperature, dissolved oxygen concentration, saturation of dissolved oxygen) were measured. The zooplankton fauna of the pond consist of Rotifera (87%) and Cladocera groups (13%). The dominant species were recorded as Asplanchna priodonta, Keratella cochlearis and Testudinella patina.

Kızılca Göleti (Konya-Seydişehir/Türkiye) Zooplankton Faunası Üzerine Bir Ön Çalışma

Abstract

Kızılca Göleti en yoğun yağ balıkları (Pseudophoxinus anatolicus) popülasyonuna sahiptir. Anadolu endemik türünün yayılış alanına dikkat çekmek amacıyla çalışma alanı olarak bu gölet seçilmiş ve bu ön çalışma Temmuz 2018'de tek seferlik zooplankton tür çeşitliliği üzerinde gerçekleştirilmiştir. Zooplankton örnekleri 8 m derinlikte (bu derinlikten sadece bir kez örnekleme) gölün pelajik bölgesinden alınmıştır. Ayrıca, örnekler 55 μm göz açıklığındaki Hydro-Bios model plankton kepçesi ile toplanmıştır. Gölün fizikokimyasal parametreleri (pH, iletkenlik, su sıcaklığı, çözünmüş oksijen konsantrasyonu, çözünmüş oksijen doygunluğu) ölçülmüştür. Göletin zooplankton faunası Rotifera (% 87) ve Cladocera gruplarından (% 13) oluşmuştur. Baskın türler Asplanchna priodonta, Keratella cochlearis ve Testudinella patina olarak kayıt edilmiştir.
