New Records Of The Genus Histioneis F.R. Von Stein (Dinophyceae) From Turkish Coastal Waters, Sevi̇m Polat, Tufan Koray
Turkish Journal of Botany
The dinoflagellate genus Histioneis F.R. von Stein 1883 and six species belonging to this genus are reported for the first time from the coastal waters of Turkey (north-eastern Mediterranean, lat. 36° 06' N - 36° 07' N, long. 33° 28' E - 33°30' E). Descriptions of the species Histioneis depressa J.Schiller, H. expansa L.Rampi, H. para Murray & Whitting, H. marchesonii L.Rampi, H. striata Kof. & J.R.Michener and H. elongata Kof. & J.R.Michener are given.
Phytoplankton Distribution, Diversity And Nutrients At The North-Eastern Mediterranean Coast Of Turkey (Karataş-Adana), Sevi̇m Polat, Oya Işik
Phytoplankton Distribution, Diversity And Nutrients At The North-Eastern Mediterranean Coast Of Turkey (Karataş-Adana), Sevi̇m Polat, Oya Işik
Turkish Journal of Botany
Seasonal changes in phytoplankton composition and phytoplankton abundance and physico-chemical factors affecting these parameters were investigated in this study. Quantitative and qualitative phytoplankton and nutrient analysis were carried out between 1998 and 1999 at 12 sampling stations located from inshore to offshore of Karataş, situated in the north-eastern Mediterranean. A total of 135 taxa were determined, belonging to four algae classes: Cyanophyceae, Bacillariophyceae, Dinophyceae and Dictyochophyceae. Bacillariophyceae appeared to be the dominant group in terms of total species number and cell numbers during the research period. The number of phytoplankton species was high in winter and quite low in summer. …
Phytoplankton Species' Succession And Nutrients In The Southern Black Sea (Bay Of Sinop), Muhammet Türkoğlu, Tufan Koray
Phytoplankton Species' Succession And Nutrients In The Southern Black Sea (Bay Of Sinop), Muhammet Türkoğlu, Tufan Koray
Turkish Journal of Botany
The succession, annual cycle and diversity of phytoplankton species and seasonal changes in nutrients in the southern Black Sea (around Sinop peninsula) were investigated between August 1995 and July 1996. One species of Cyanophyceae, 83 taxa of Dinophyceae, 1 species of Prymnesiophyceae, 5 taxa of Dictyochophyceae, 88 taxa of Bacillariophyceae and 1 species of Euglenophyceae were identified. A list of phytoplankton species together with annual variations was prepared. Changes in community structure, density and diversity are discussed in relation to the physico-chemical features of the water column.
