Title Of Article :
A checklist for zooplankton (Rotifera, Copepoda, Cladocera) of European Turkey inland waters
Abstract :
The European part of Turkey, which constitutes a transitional region between Europe and Asia hosts species of both continents. But, the zooplankton checklist in the European part of Turkey has not been published so far as a separate checklist from that of Turkey as a whole. Therefore, a checklist was presented in this study based on compilation of previous zooplankton studies carried out at European Turkey inland waters. As a result of the studies conducted since 1940 to date, a total of 256 taxa belonging to 138 Rotifera, 53 Copepoda and 65 Cladocera were listed.
