A new species of Calanopia (Copepoda, Calanoida) from the central Red Sea
Unal, E; Shmeleva, AA (Brill, 2002-01-01)
A new species of calanoid copepod, Calanopia kideysi, has been found in the central Red Sea. An adult female and a young male of the 5(th) copepodite stage are described. Comparisons are made between the new species and the other similar Indo-Pacific forms from the Red Sea: Calanopia minor A. Scott, 1902, and Calanopia n. sp. A (Uysal & Shmeleva, submitted). The new copepod is without lateral cephalic hooks and can be distinguished from these other small Calanopia species by the shape of its genital somite ...

First record of a melanistic golden jackal (Canis aureus, Canidae) from Turkey
Ambarlı, Huseyin; Bilgin, Cemal Can (2013-05-01)
The golden jackal is a locally common mammal species widely distributed along the Black Sea and other coastal regions of Turkey. Between February 2009 and April 2010, we conducted a camera trap study in Artvin, northeastern Turkey that revealed the presence of ten medium or large mammal species. We report here the first ever photographic evidence of a melanistic golden jackal, along with its normal-colored probable mate. Dark fur color in wolves has been shown to be historically transferred from domestic do...
First Record of Humpback Dolphins in Mersin Bay, the Eastern Mediterranean, Turkey
ÖZBİLGİN, YELİZ; Kalecik, Ebrucan; Gücü, Ali Cemal (2018-01-01)
Two to four humpback dolphins were first time observed at two occasions on 3 February and 25 April 2016 on Turkish coastal waters of the Northeast Mediterranean. They were recorded by under-water cameras while feeding on fish escaping from experimental demersal trawl during two separate operations conducted on shallow waters. Although the quality of the footage was quite good, the individuals could only be identified at genus level. When the distribution ranges of the genus and recent enlargement of the Sue...
