New Locality Records Of Eumeces Schneideri (Daudin, 1802) (Sauria: Scincidae) From Western Anatolia, Turkey, Keri̇m Çi̇çek, Oğuzkan Cumhuri̇yet, Yusuf Bayrakci, Di̇nçer Ayaz
Turkish Journal of Zoology
In this study, we report 2 new close localities for Eumeces schneideri from Aydın, western Anatolia, Turkey. The specimens were examined morphologically and compared with the relevant literature. These new localities have filled in the gap in the species' distribution range in western Anatolia, Turkey. According to the morphological results, the female specimens resembled E. S. Barani in terms of the scales along the dorsal midline. However, the color-pattern characteristics of the specimens were found to be somewhere between E. S. Barani and E. S. Princeps; thus, the specimens were accepted as E. S. Cf. Barani.

The Spatial And Temporal Distributions Of Waterbirds In Lakes Akşehir-Eber And Lake Köyceğiz In Western Anatolia, Turkey - A Comparative Analysis, Fulya Saygili, Nuri̇ Yi̇ği̇t, Şafak Bulut
Turkish Journal of Zoology
The waterbirds at 2 wetlands (Lakes Akşehir-Eber and Köyceğiz) in western Turkey were compared to determine their spatial and temporal distributions along with their habitat characteristics. The waterbirds were evaluated according to whether they were residents, winter migrants, summer migrants, or transit migrants and were assigned to foraging behavior groups. At Lakes Akşehir-Eber, 67 waterbird species belonging to 17 families and 9 orders were observed, while at Lake Köyceğiz 42 species belonging to 14 families and 9 orders were recorded. The waterbird fauna in both lake systems is composed of the following bird groups in the same order of occurrence: …
