New Data On Aplidium Tabarquense (Tunicata: Ascidiacea)Distribution In The Adriatic Sea, Slavica Petovic, Flavia Grieco, Vesna Macic, Federica Montesanto, Francesco Mastrototaro
Turkish Journal of Zoology
The colonial ascidian Aplidium tabarquense Ramos-Espla 1991 was recorded in Montenegro during a monitory survey carried out by scuba divers on an underwater outfall of the wastewater discharge system in Traste Bay. Several colonies were present on artificial substrata at a depth of 27 m. This is the first record of the species in the South Adriatic Sea. Further observations are recommended both to delineate the effective distribution and population density of A. tabarquense in the Mediterranean Sea and to widen the knowledge on ascidian diversity along Montenegro's coasts.

Rediscovery Of Eunapius Carteri (Bowerbank, 1863) In Western Europe, Rafael Carballeira
Turkish Journal of Zoology
The freshwater sponge collections of the National Museum of Natural History of Madrid were examined and the presence of Eunapius carteri (Bowerbank, 1863) in the Iberian Peninsula was rediscovered. An approach to its ecology is also presented. This species is not currently considered within the Iberian and Western European fauna. Therefore, its rediscovery changes the conception of this species' biogeographical distribution in Europe linked to its ecology.

The Evolutionary Trend Of Platform Denticulation In Middle Triassic Acuminate Gondolellidae (Conodonta), Pablo Plasencia, Ali̇ Murat Kiliç, Aymon Baud, Milan Sudar, Francis Hirsch
The Evolutionary Trend Of Platform Denticulation In Middle Triassic Acuminate Gondolellidae (Conodonta), Pablo Plasencia, Ali̇ Murat Kiliç, Aymon Baud, Milan Sudar, Francis Hirsch
Turkish Journal of Zoology
Acuminate Middle-Late Triassic Gondolellidae are characterized by an ellipsoid platform with a central to posterior amygdaloid basal cavity and an octomembrate apparatus of gondolelloid affinity. Starting with a neospathodiform proteromorph during the Anisian, their anagenetic lineage developed during the Fassanian, Longobardian, and Julian, ending in another neospathodiform proteromorph. As the increase in complexity in the platform denticulation is an important evolutionary trend, three new genera are proposed: Guexispathodus n. gen., Marquezella n. gen., and Kirilella n. gen., which, together with Pseudofurnishius and Mosherella, represent the subfamily Marquezellinae n. subfam.

Does The Location Of Coastal Brackish Waters Determine Diversityand Abundance Of Zooplankton Assemblages?, Agnieszka Gutkowska, Ewa Paturej, Jacek Koszalka
Turkish Journal of Zoology
Habitat conditions may shape the abundance and community structure of planktonic fauna. In this study, we investigated whether reservoirs with different locations and drainage basins also differed in the structure and abundance of zooplankton. The studies were conducted in 2010-2011 between June and October in the Vistula Lagoon and Lake Lebsko. The zooplankton was dominated mainly by small eurytopic organisms belonging to Rotifera. Plankton crustaceans showed a limited diversity of species. Copepods were predominant, while Cladocera were observed sporadically in more freshwater habitats. In the first experimental season (2010), the Vistula Lagoon and Lake Lebsko showed a comparable taxonomic structure …

The Ciliopathy Gene Product Cep290 Is Required For Primary Cilium Formation And Microtubule Network Organization, Eli̇f Nur Firat Karalar
Turkish Journal of Biology
The mammalian centrosome/cilium complex is composed of the centrosome, the primary cilium, and the centriolar satellites,which together function in key cellular processes including signaling. Defective assembly, maintenance, and function of the centrosome/cilium complex cause the human genetic diseases known as ciliopathies, which are characterized by a multitude of developmental syndromes including retinal degeneration and kidney cysts. The molecular mechanisms underlying pathogenesis in ciliopathies remain poorly understood, which requires structural and functional characterization of the mutated ciliopathy proteins at the cellular level. To this end, we elucidated the function and regulation of Cep290, which is the most frequently mutated gene in …
