The current article presents 18 new records from seven Mediterranean countries. These include one rhodophyte, fournudibranchs, two crustaceans, stingray and 10 bony fishes. They are grouped by country as follows: Lebanon - first record ofthe Striped bass Morone saxatilis, the Himantura leoparda, Areolate grouper Epinephelus areolatus Spot-finporcupinefish Diodon hystrix various parts of country; Turkey invasive red alga Grateloupia turuturufrom sea Marmara (region Bandırma), slug...
“New records of rare species in the Mediterranean Sea” (October 2021)
Mesozooplankton was studied during 2008 in coastal waters of the İskenderun Bay order to determine seasonal changes abundance, biomass, community structure and their relationship with environmental factors. Samples were collected seasonally at five stations using WP-2 net 200 µ mesh size by vertical hauls. A total 23 planktonic groups including 30 copepod species, 4 cladocerans chaetognaths identified. Copepods most important group whole period survey. Penilia avirostris found be dominant...
In this Collective Article on alien and cryptogenic diversity in the Mediterranean Sea we report a total of 19 species belonging to nine Phyla coming from countries. Several these records concern fish species, particular interest are first of: Terapon puta for Italian waters; Pteragopus trispilus Malta; Plotosus lineatus Cyprus; northernmost record Lagocephalus sceleratus. The was also reported sea urchin Diadema setosum. portunid crab Thalamita poissonii recorded time Libya. copepod...
Zooplankton was studied seasonally between 2009 and 2011 in İskenderun Bay order to determine temporal variations abundance, biomass, size structure their relationships with environmental factors. sampling performed vertically using a WP-2 net (200-µm). A total of 30 zooplankton taxonomic groups were identified. Cladocera the dominant group, together Copepoda Appendicularia constituted approximately 90% zooplankton. In respect abundance biomass values, 2 peaks observed 2009, first spring...
Among non-native copepods, the calanoid Pseudodiaptomus marinus Sato, 1913 is species probably spreading at fastest pace in European and neighbouring waters since its first record Adriatic Sea 2007. In this contribution, we provide an update on distribution of P. Mediterranean Black Seas, along Atlantic coasts Europe, English Channel southern North Sea. Starting from a previous overview, include here original recently (2019–2023) published data to show novel introduction different...
The first record of Ferosagitta galerita in the Mediterranean Chaetognatha fauna is reported. morphological and ecological features this species, which was hitherto only known to live near Madagascar Indian Ocean, are given detail. With new finding, number chaetognath species be Sea increased.
Pleopis schmackeri, a podonid cladoceran not previously recorded in the Mediterranean Sea, was found İskenderun Bay for first time. The samples were collected seasonally during 2012–2015 coastal area of using WP-2 zooplankton net (200 µm). Six species total, and Penilia avirostris, Pseudevadne tergestina Evadne spinifera constituted bulk population, while contribution P. schmackeri very low. Although only single individual observed July 2012, abundance frequency increased following years,...
Seasonal variations in species composition and abundance of tintinnids were investigated the eutrophic coastal offshore waters Mersin Bay. Twelve sampling cruises performed from September 2008 to February 2011. A total 85 tintinnid taxa identified. Among recorded genera, agglutinated Tintinnopsis had largest number (12 species), followed by hyaline loricated Eutintinnius (9 Proplectella (7 species). Stenosemella ventricosa, beroidea, T. compressa, Favella azorica, Helicostemella subulata...
The purpose of this study was to describe temporal variations in the abundance cladocerans Mediterranean Sea relation environmental parameters. conducted between 2008 and 2011 at five sampling stations located coastal waters İskenderun Bay. Zooplankton samples were seasonally collected for four years using a 200-μm mesh WP-2 zooplankton net. contribution total community 22.8% 9.3% 2009. In 2010 (59.4%) (63.4%), annual mean increased markedly from 473 ind. m −3 3917 accounted more than half...
Cymbasoma sinopense sp. nov. is described from an adult female collected off the Sinop coast, in southern Black Sea, Turkey. This first species of this genus recorded Sea coast The new a member widespread longispinosum species-group, and it closely resembles C. chelemense Suárez-Morales & Escamilla, 1997 Yucatan Peninsula californiense Palomares-García, 1999 Gulf California. can be distinguished by combination subtle characters, including body proportions, structure armature fifth legs,...
Abstract Copepods provide a rich organic microenvironment allowing the settlement and proliferation of microorganisms, forming dynamic microbial hotspots in oceans. Such symbiotic associations plankton were previously hypothesized to be especially developed warm oligotrophic seas, as they may serve alternative sources nutrients biologically poor waters. Aiming better understand how copepod microbiomes are shaped an sea, we characterized microbiota associated with three dominant coastal...
In this study, tropical oithonid copepod Dioithona oculata was recorded for the first time in Mediterranean Sea. This species is distinguished easily by its large ocular lenses and number of setae on endopod maxillule. The study conducted seasonally coastal area İskenderun Bay between April 2013 December 2016. D. observed October (Station 4; 3.1 ind. m$^{-3}$)); after period, became an important contributor to zooplankton assemblages with highest level seen 2016 4, 834.5 m$^{-3}$)....
We report the first occurrence of Oithona davisae Ferrari F.D.&Orsi, 1984 in Sinop coast, Turkey.Data on abundance and biomass this species, proportion adult copepodite stages total copepods were investigated.The zooplankton samples collected monthly by vertical hauls with plankton net 112 μm mesh size from January to December 2009.However, O. was observed for time September, continued be remainder sampling period.The highest species recorded November 2009 (1485.35ind.m -3 2.9 mg.m ,...
Abstract. The extracellular concentration of H2O2 in surface aquatic environments is controlled by a balance between photochemical production and the microbial synthesis catalase peroxidase enzymes to remove from solution. In any kind incubation experiment, formation rates equilibrium concentrations reactive oxygen species (ROSs) such as may be sensitive both experiment design, particularly regulation incident light, abundance different groups, cellular catalase–peroxidase enzyme differ...
Accelerated anthropogenic changes in the Eastern Mediterranean Sea (EMS) have facilitated introduction, spread and establishment of invasive copepod species this region. Here, we report introduction two non-native cyclopoid copepods Dioithona oculata Oithona davisae for first time Israeli coastal waters describe their temporal variability. The were identified by morphological characteristics, DNA barcoding phylogenetic inference. Molecular identification analysis supported taxonomical...
