Abstract

In order to determine benthic invertebrate fauna of Urla Harbour and its vicinity, four samplings were performed at 8 stations between February 2001 and December 2001. As a result, 283 species and 14492 individuals belonging to 8 systematic groups were determined. Seasonal fluctuations at the stations were examined and conspicuous seasonal changes at the stations 2 and 3, because of pollution in the harbor, were observed.

Abstract

Bu çalışmada, Urla Limanı ve civarı (İzmir Körfezi, Ege Denizi) omurgasız bentik faunasını belirlemek amacıyla, Şubat 2001 – Aralık 2001 tarihleri arasında 8 istasyondan 4 örnekleme yapılmıştır. Araştırma sonucunda, 8 sistematik gruba ait toplam 283 tür ve bu türlere ait 14492 birey tespit edilmiştir. İstasyonlardaki mevsimsel değişimler incelenmiş ve limandaki kirliliğin özellikle 2 ve 3 no’lu istasyonlarda önemli mevsimsel değişimlere neden olduğu sonucuna varılmıştır
