Checklist for ciliate species (Protozoa, Ciliophora) living in Turkish Inland waters and flooded zones

Türkiye içsularında yaşayan Siliyat türleri (Protozoa, Ciliophora) için kontrol listesi. Bu çalışmada lokal siliyat çalışmaları bir araya getirilmiştir. Sonuç olarak, 2 suphylum ve 10 sınıfa ait toplam 164 takson listelenmiştir. Altı takson cins düzeyine kadar teşhis edilmiştir. Bu çalışma Lynn (2003)’e göre revize edilmiş olan ve yüksek taksonlardaki değişimleri kapsayan Türkiye’deki ilk listedir.

Türkiye içsularında yaşayan siliyat türleri (Protozoa, Cilliophora) için kontrol listesi

The local ciliate studies were gathered in order to prepare a check list for the ciliates living in Turkish inland waters. As a result, total of 164 taxa belonging to 11 classes and 2 subphylum were listed. Six of these taxa were identified up to genus level. This was the first list for Turkey which was prepared according to the revised classification of Lynn (2003) and involves the changes in higher categories.
