Taxonomic Studies On Trissolcus Sp. (Hymenoptera: Scelionidae), Egg Parasitoids Of The Sunn Pest (Hemiptera: Scutelleridae: Eurygaster Sp.), In Turkey, Erhan Koçak, Neşet Kilinçer
Taxonomic Studies On Trissolcus Sp. (Hymenoptera: Scelionidae), Egg Parasitoids Of The Sunn Pest (Hemiptera: Scutelleridae: Eurygaster Sp.), In Turkey, Erhan Koçak, Neşet Kilinçer
Turkish Journal of Zoology
The egg batches with parasitoids of the sunn pest Eurygaster sp. (Hemiptera: Scutelleridae) were collected to determine the egg parasitoid Trissolcus species (Hymenoptera: Scelionidae) of the pest from cereal areas in Turkey. In total, eight Trissolcus species, namely T. simoni Mayr, T. vassilievi Mayr, T. semistriatus Nees, T. grandis Thompson, T. manteroi Kieffer, T. pseudoturesis Rjachovsky, T. rufiventris Mayr and T. djadetshko Rjachovsky, are recognized. T. djadetshko Rjachovsky and T. manteroi Kieffer are new species for the Turkish fauna. The species are described and an identification key is provided.

A Taxonomical Study On The Zooplankton Of Göksu Dam Lake (Diyarbakır), Aysel Bekleyen
Turkish Journal of Zoology
The zooplanktonic fauna of Göksu dam lake was taxonomically investigated between April 1995 and December 1996. As a result, 16 species of cladocerans, three species of copepods and 28 species of rotifers, a total of 47 species, were identified in the lake. Of these, Monommata arndti (Rotifera) is a new record for Turkey's inland waters.

A Study On Micromys Minitus (Pallas, 1771) (Mammalia: Rodentia) In Turkish Thrace, Beytullah Özkan, Nuri̇ Yi̇ği̇t, Ercüment Çolak
Turkish Journal of Zoology
Micromys minutus was recorded from six localities in Turkish Thrace. The external, cranial and karyological peculiarities of the specimens were determined. The dorsal colour of the specimens is dark brownish, being lighter on the sides, but the rostrum and cheek are markedly ochre. Mean tail length relative to body length is 90.5%, and the occipito-nasal length is 18.1 mm. The diploid number of chromosomes was 2n = 68 with NF = 136 and NFa = 132.
The Taxonomy And Distribution Of Apodemus Agrarius (Pallas, 1771) (Mammalia: Rodentia) In The European Part Of Turkey, Haluk Kefeli̇oğlu, Coşkun Tez, İslam Gündüz
The Taxonomy And Distribution Of Apodemus Agrarius (Pallas, 1771) (Mammalia: Rodentia) In The European Part Of Turkey, Haluk Kefeli̇oğlu, Coşkun Tez, İslam Gündüz
Turkish Journal of Zoology
The morphological and karyological characteristics of 27 specimens of Apodemus agrarius (Pallas, 1771) from the European part of Turkey were studied in detail and compared with those in the literature in order to provide a wider perspective on the taxonomic status of Apodemus agrarius in Turkey. In all the samples examined, 2n = 48 karyotype was observed with FN = 56 and FNa = 54. The 2n = 48 karyotype includes three pairs of metacentric, one pair of submetacentric and 19 pairs of acrocentric autosomes. Of the sex chromosomes, the X is a large acrocentric and the Y is a …
