A Study On The Feeding Biology Of Laudakia (=Agama) Stellio (L. 1758) (Lacertilia: Agamidae) Populations In The Antalya Region, Serdar Düşen, Mehmet Öz
A Study On The Feeding Biology Of Laudakia (=Agama) Stellio (L. 1758) (Lacertilia: Agamidae) Populations In The Antalya Region, Serdar Düşen, Mehmet Öz
Turkish Journal of Zoology
The feeding biology of Laudakia (=Agama) stellio (L. 1758) was studied using 91 specimens collected from the Antalya region over two consecutive years (1995 and 1996). A total of 1224 prey items were identifed and their frequency of occurrence and percent of diet were tabulated. The majority of the diet consisted of the class Insecta (99.18%), and within this class, Hymenoptera (72.21%) was the major order represented, primarily by the families Formicidae (49.83%) and Apidae (16.74%). In addition to insects, L. stellio feeds on plant material, insect larvae and eggs, and even snails, showing opportunist feeding behavior.

The Effects Of Cold Storage On The Adult Longevity, Fecundity And Sex Ratio Of Apanteles Galleriae Wilkinson (Hym.: Braconidae), Fevzi̇ Uçkan, Adem Gülel
Turkish Journal of Zoology
The effect of cold storage on the adult longevity, fecundity and sex ratio of Apanteles galleriae Wilkinson, a koinobiont, solitary and early instar larval endoparasitoid of the Small Wax Moth Achoria grisella Fabr. was investigated. The rearing of both parasitoid and host cultures and experiments related to the effect of storing Apanteles galleriae adults at low temperature (+ 6°C) were conducted at 25 ± 1°C, 60 ± 5% RH under a photoperiod of 12:12 (L:D). Cold storage (+ 6°C) considerably influenced the adult longevity, fecundity and sex ratio of the parasitoid. Experimental evidence showed that 85.27% of adults died after …

Reward Frequency: Effects On Flower Choices Made By Different Honeybee Races In Turkey, İbrahi̇m Çakmak, Harrington Wells
Reward Frequency: Effects On Flower Choices Made By Different Honeybee Races In Turkey, İbrahi̇m Çakmak, Harrington Wells
Turkish Journal of Zoology
We compared the European honeybee races Apis mellifera armeniaca, A.m. caucasica, A.m. cypria, and A.m. syriaca. These subspecies are endemic to very different habitats. Additionally, they are exposed to very different levels of predation. A.m. caucasica exists where honeybee predators typically are rare, while the remaining subspecies have ranges that coincide with areas where honeybee predators are abundant. Foraging decisions of workers visiting artificial flower patches containing blue, white, and yellow flowers were recorded. We tested whether foragers responded to differences in rewarding flower frequency among flower color morphs. Division of labor occurred among foragers of each race; some bees …
Effect Of Water Temperature On Growth Of Hatchery Reared Black Sea Turbot, Scophthalmus Maximus (Linnaeus, 1758), Temel Şahi̇n
Effect Of Water Temperature On Growth Of Hatchery Reared Black Sea Turbot, Scophthalmus Maximus (Linnaeus, 1758), Temel Şahi̇n
Turkish Journal of Zoology
A rearing experiment was carried out to examine the effect of water temperature on the growth of the Black Sea turbot, Scophthalmus maximus, at ambient temperature (mean 15.2±0.6°C), 18, 20, 22 and 24°C with fish of 34.4±9.9 g initial body weight. The experiment lasted 30 days and the fish were fed to satiation three times a day with a commercial pelleted diet. Survival rates starting with the control group were 100, 83.4, 68.4, 3.4, and 1.7%, respectively. Although the mean weights of the groups were very similar at the beginning of the experiment, they had become markedly varied by the …
Ultrastructural Observations On The Development Of Some Actinosporean Types Within Their Oligochaete Hosts, Ahmet Özer, Rodney Wootten
Ultrastructural Observations On The Development Of Some Actinosporean Types Within Their Oligochaete Hosts, Ahmet Özer, Rodney Wootten
Turkish Journal of Zoology
Synactinomyxon type 1, aurantiactinomyxon type 3, echinactinomyxon type 5 and raabeia type 4 were studied at the TEM level in order to determine the developmental stages within their oligochaete hosts. All the actinosporean types studied had uninucleate cells as the earliest stage of development. The formation of a subsequent binucleate cell stage was either due to the division of the nucleus in a uninucleate cell or the plasmogamy of two uninucleate cells. The earliest pansporocyst formation seen was two outer somatic cells surrounding two inner generative \alpha and \beta cells in all the actinosporean types studied. However, the formation of …

A Study On Endocrine Cells In The Midgut Of Agrotis Segetum (Denn.And Schiff.) (Lepidoptera:Noctuidae), Nursel Gül, Hakki Sayar, Nesri̇n Özsoy, Cevat Ayvali
Turkish Journal of Zoology
The structure of midgut endocrine cells of Agrotis segetum larvae was examined by light and electron microscopy. It was observed that the endocrine cells were located on the basal lamina and among the columnar epithelial cells of the midgut. The cells were morphologically determined as columnar or coniform. The cytoplasm of endocrine cells was observed to contain rough endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria, developed Golgi complex, vesicles and numerous small secretory granules. It was also observed that the secretory granules were often located in the basal region of the endocrine cells.

Histological Study Of The Organogenesis Of The Digestive System And Swim Bladder Of The Chalcalburnus Tarichi Pallas, 1811 (Cyprinidae), Güler Ünal, Osman Çeti̇nkaya, Ertuğrul Kankaya, Mahmut Elp
Turkish Journal of Zoology
The histological development of the digestive system and swim bladder of Chalcalburnus tarichi larvae and their histology in adults were studied under light microscopy. After hatching, the digestive tract is a simple undifferentiated tube. Exogenous feeding started on the 6th day. The yolk sac was absorbed completely on the 9th day. The goblet cells appeared first in the bucco-pharyngeal cavity and oesophagus on the 4th day, in the anterior on the 9th day and in the posterior intestine on the 5th day. The digestive tract was differentiated as the buccal cavity, pharynx, oesophagus post-eosophageal swelling and intestine on the 5th …

Turkish Journal of Zoology
Certain entodiniid ciliates, somewhat different from those previously described (1), were observed the during examination of the rumen contents of 30 adult domestic cattle (Bos taurus L.) in the vicinity of Izmir. We propose that these new forms should be taxonomically named Entodinium oektemae n. sp. and Entodinium imaii n. sp. The frequencies Entodinium oektemae n. sp. and Entodinium imaii n. sp. were 6.67% 16.67% respectively. The main characteristics of these two species are described in detail and discussed in comparison with those of the previously reported ones.

Some Assyriellaspecies In South East Anatolia In Turkey Differentiated By Multivariate Statistical Analysis (Gastropoda: Pulmonata, Helicidae), Hasan Akbayin, Murat Hevedanli, Ridvan Şeşen
Turkish Journal of Zoology
This study was performed on 3 species of the genus Assyriella ( A. escheriana , A. guttata and A. thospitis) collected from Diyarbakır province in Southeast Anatolia. Two derived and 6 shell variables of 50 specimens were examined for each species. Hierarchical clustering and discriminant analysis were used to evaluate the data in order to clarify and contribute to some systematic problems of these species. It was shown that Ward's method with Euclidean distance is the most appropriate hierarchical clustering method to cluster these species. A. escheriana is clearly differentiated from A. guttata and A. thospitis by both Ward's method …

Marsh Frogs, Rana Ridibunda In Lake Akören -26 August National Park (Afyon): A Preliminary Study Of Population Size And A Taxonomical Evaluation, Uğur Kaya, Uğur C. Eri̇şmi̇ş
Turkish Journal of Zoology
The population size of marsh frogs, Rana ridibunda was estimated using the mark-recapture method in Lake Akören Lake. The triple catch method was used to calculate survival and gains in addition to population size. The population sizes were estimated to be 3016 on the second day, and 3532 on the third day. On the basis of morphological analyses, we concluded that Lake Akören is inhabited by Rana ridibunda ridibunda.
