Çanakkale Boğazı kıyısal sularının yumuşak zeminleri’ndeki Prosobranş (Mollusca: Gastropoda) kommunite yapısı
Abstract
Çalışmanın amacı
Çanakkale Boğazı kıyısal sularının (0-5 m) yumuşak zeminlerindeki Prosobranş
kommunite yapısını belirlemekti. Bentoz örnekleri Temmuz 2008 ve Nisan 2009
tarihleri arasında bir Scuba dalıcı tarafından 30x30 cm’lik kuadrat
kullanılarak mevsimsel olarak toplanmıştır. Örneklemeler Çanakkale Boğazı’nın 8
farklı istasyonun 3 transekt derinliğinde yürütülmüştür. Prosobranşlardan
toplam 4472 birey kaydedilmiştir. Rissoa splendida Eichwald, 1830 sayısal
olarak en baskın türdü (Di % = 20.57). Lapseki istasyonu en düşük birey
sayısına (157) sahipken, Kilitbahir en yüksek (1069) birey sayısına sahipti. Spearman
korelasyonuna göre en yüksek pozitif ilişki (rs = 0.75) tuzluluk ile tür sayısı
arasındadır. Aksine en düşük (rs = 0.51) ilişki ise pH ile tür sayısı
arasındadır. Bray-Curtis benzerlik analizi yaz ve kış aylarının (88.65%) çok
benzer olduğunu göstermektedir. Çanakkale ve Kilya koyu istasyonları yüksek
(70.87 %) benzerliğe sahipti.

The community structure of Prosobranchia (Mollusca: Gastropoda) on shallow soft bottoms of the Çanakkale Strait
Abstract
The goal of this
study was to determine the community structure belonging to the Prosobranchia
(Gastropoda, Mollusca) in soft bottoms of the Çanakkale Strait coastal waters
(0-5 m). Benthos samples were collected seasonally using a 30x30 quadrate
operated by a SCUBA diver between July 2008 and April 2009. Samplings were
carried out at 3 transect depths of 8 different locations of the Çanakkale
Strait. A total of 4472 specimens of Prosobranchs were recorded. Rissoa
splendida Eichwald, 1830 was the numerically dominant species (Di % = 20.57).
Kilitbahir location had the highest number of individuals (1069), while the
Lapseki location had the lowest number (157). According to Spearman’s rank
correlation, the highest positive correlation (rs = 0.75) was between salinity
and species number. Conversely, the lowest correlation (rs = 0.51) was found
between pH and species number. Bray-Curtis similarity index showed that summer
and winter periods were very similar (88.65 %). Çanakkale and the Kilya inlet
points had the highest similarity (70.87 %).
