Zooplankton composition and abundance in lake Eğrigöl, a high mountain lake (Gündoğmuş, Antalya)

Orta Toroslarda deniz seviyesinden 2060 metre yükseklikte yer alan Eğrigöl’ün zooplankton kompozisyonunun ve bolluğunun ortaya çıkarılması için Temmuz, Ağustos 2000 ve Haziran, Eylül 2001 de dört arazi çalışması düzenlenmiştir. 30 tür rotifer, 8 tür kladoser ve 3 tür kopepod olmak üzere toplam 41 tür tespit edilmiştir. Tür sayısı ve bolluk değerlerine göre Eğrigöl’de rotiferlerin baskın olduğu (%49,75 - 90,92), bunu kladoserlerin (%6,54 - 27,52), ve kopepodların (%2,54 - 22,72) izlediği anlaşılmıştır. Tespit edilen türlerin tamamı Eğrigöl’den ilk kez bildirilmektedir.

Yüksek Dağ Gölü Eğrigöl'ün (Gündoğmuş-Antalya) zooplankton kompozisyonu ve bolluğu

Field studies were conducted in July and August 2000, and in June and September 2001 in order to determine the zooplankton composition and abundance of Lake Eğrigöl, a high mountain lake located 2060 m a.s.l. in the middle Taurus Mountain Range. In total, 41 species were found, including 30 Rotifera, 8 Cladocera, and 3 Copepoda. Based on the number of species and their abundance (individuals m–3), rotifers were the dominant group (49.75%-90.92%), followed by Cladocera (6.54%-27.52%), and Copepoda (2.54%-22.72%). All taxa were first records for the lake.
