Abstract

In order to evaluate the macrozoobenthic fauna of Çıldır, Aktaş and Aygır lakes, 47 taxa were identified as a result of the samplings carried out in different periods in 2013, 2017 and 2019. 41 of 43 taxa identified at species level were new records for the study area. The dominant species of Lake Çıldır were Gyraulus (Armiger) crista (4.49%), Paratanytarsus lauterborni (3.90%) and Virgotanytarsus arduensis (3.80%). It was seen that the gammarid population was determined dominant among zoobenthos of Aktaş Lake. Gammarus pseudosyriacus was the dominant species with 15.24% dominance rate in Aktaş Lake, followed by Cricotopus (Isocladius) reversus with 7.53% and Gyraulus albus with 7.29%. Gammarid population was also high in Aygır Lake, but unlike Aktaş Lake, Gammarus balcanicus from this group with a dominance rate of 6.28%; it took the fourth place after Gyraulus albus (8%), Virgotanytarsus arduensis (6.92%) and Cricotopus (Isocladius) tricinctus (6.64%). In terms of macrozoobenthic fauna diversity, the highest Shannon and Margalef Index values were found in Lake Çıldır (Shannon Index H': between 1.73-2.23 (average 2.0), Margalef Index: between 1.89-2.06 (average 2.03)) while diversity indices were lower in Aktaş and Aygır lakes. The taxa detected in all three lakes are α and β mesotrophic species, and the high population density can be considered as a sign of the transition from the oligotrophic level to the mesotrophic level, especially for Lake Çıldır.

Abstract

Çıldır, Aktaş ve Aygır göllerinin makrozoobentik fauna yapısının ortaya konması amacıyla 2013, 2017 ve 2019 yıllarında farklı dönemlerde göllerde yapılan örneklemeler sonucunda 47 takson tespit edilmiştir. Tür düzeyinde teşhisi yapılan 43 taksondan 41 tanesi araştırma yapılan göller için yeni kayıt niteliğindedir. Çıldır Gölü’nün dominant türleri Gyraulus (Armiger) crista (% 4.49), Paratanytarsus lauterborni (% 3.90) ve Virgotanytarsus arduensis (% 3.80) olarak tespit dilmiştir. Aktaş Gölü zoobentozunda gammarid populasyonunun çok baskın olduğu görülmektedir. Gölde Gammarus pseudosyriacus %15.24 baskınlık oranı ile dominant tür iken bunu % 7.53 oran ile Cricotopus (Isocladius) reversus ve % 7.29 oran ile Gyraulus albus takip etmektedir. Aygır Gölü’nde de gammarid populasyonu yüksektir ancak Aktaş Gölü’nden farklı olarak bu gruptan Gammarus balcanicus % 6.28’lik baskınlık oranı ile; Gyraulus albus (% 8), Virgotanytarsus arduensis (% 6.92) ve Cricotopus (Isocladius) tricinctus’tan (% 6.64) sonra dördüncü sırada yer almaktadır. Makrozoobentik fauna çeşitliliği açısından en yüksek Shannon ve Margalef İndeks değerleri Çıldır Gölü’nde tespit edilmiş olup (Shannon İndeks H’: 1.73-2.23 arasında (ortalama 2.0), Margalef İndeks: 1.89-2.06 arsında (ortalama 2.03)) Aktaş ve Aygır göllerinde ise daha düşüktür. Her üç göl genelinde de tespit edilen taksonlar α ve β mesosaprob su kalitesi sınıfına ait türler olup, populasyon yoğunluklarının fazla olması özellikle Çıldır Gölü için oligotrofik düzeyden mesotrofik düzeye geçişin bir işareti olarak değerlendirilebilir.
