Abstract
This study is carried out by seasonal sampling to determine Gastropod fauna collected from supralittoral, mediolittoral and upperinfralittoral areas of 3 stations (Phaselis, Lara, Side) in Antalya Bay coastal areas. At the end of the study, 18 species belonging to the subclass of Prosobranchia and 1 species belonging to the subclass of Opistobranchia of Gastropoda fauna are determined. Among these species, Monodonta turbinata, Patella caerulea, P. ulyssiponensis, Ergalatax obscura, Trunculariopsis trunculus and Conus mediterraneus are widely distributed taxons. Aplysia dactylomela to belonging the subclass Opistobranchia is a new record for the gulf of Antalya. It is observed that Monodonta spp., Patella spp., Ceritium vulgatum and Conus mediterraneus has an average population of 104,01; 112,16; 141,28; 61,28 individual/m² in the area. As a result, it is determined that either water quality or Gastropoda fauna of the Antalya Bay coastal areas resembles to the fauna and ecosytsyem characteristics of Mediterranean. The intense located Gastropod taxons can be economically utilized in proper conditions.
