A breeding bird survey in the Istranca (Yıldız) mountains of Turkish Thrace seawards to the Black sea was conducted May–August 2009. Eighty-eight days of field work in 697 locations generated novel breeding evidence for several species. The survey provided the first certain evidence of Wood Warbler Phylloscopus sibilatrix breeding in Turkey. Strong evidence for breeding of Yellowhammer Emberiza citrinella, with a relatively widespread distribution, was also gathered. The survey suggested that Green Sandpiper Tringa ochropus, which was not considered to be a breeding bird in Turkey, probably breeds in the study area. Moreover, breeding evidence was gathered for Garden Warbler Sylvia borin, Baillon’s Crake Porzana pusilla, Stock Dove Columba oenas, Icterine Warbler Hippolais icterina and Common Rosefinch Carpodacus erythrinus for the first time in Turkish Thrace. Furthermore, the survey provided some breeding evidence for Great Cormorant Phalacrocorax carbo, European Shag P. aristotelis, Pygmy Cormorant P. pygmeus, Garganey Anas querquedula, Common Redshank Tringa totanus, Alpine Swift Apus melba, Eurasian Wryneck Jynx torquilla, Redrumped Swallow Cecropis daurica, White-throated Dipper Cinclus cinclus, Sardinian Warbler Sylvia melanocephala, Barred Warbler Sylvia nisoria and Red-breasted Flycatcher Ficedula parva, which require further research on their breeding distributions in the study area.

A study of passerine migration at METU (Ankara, Central Turkey) based on the mist-netting method
Can, Özge Keşaplı; Keşaplı Can, Özge; Department of Biological Sciences (2004)
Turkey is on the main migratory route for many bird species although especially passerine migration is little known. The objective of this study is to document and analyze the diversity, abundances, daily and seasonal phenologies of migrating passerines at METU as well as compare seasonal phenologies with those obtained at Manyas Kuscenneti(Balikesir) and Cernek(Samsun) stations. The study covers autumn 2001, spring and autumn 2002 migration seasons. Methodology is based on the capture and ringing of passer...
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...
The Upper Campanian Paleoceanographic and paleoclimatic records on the northern Arabian Platform, SE Turkey
Yılmaz, İsmail Ömer; Altıner, Sevinç Özkan; Wagreich, Michael; Kvacek, Jiri (null; 2017-08-26)
The studied pelagic succession lies on the northern Arabian Platform in the Mazidag-Derik area, SE Turkey. Upper Campanian paleoceanographic events and paleoecology in the studied area have been determined for the first time in Turkey by sedimentological, geochemical and micopaleontological analysis. A composite stratigraphic section has been measured and sampled in detail. The section is characterized by alternation of marls, clayey limestones, shales and black shales. There are no coarse siliciclastic sed...
An Alternative Photo-Identification Technique For The Mediterranean Monk Seals In The Northeastern Mediterranean
Ok, Meltem; Gücü, Ali Cemal (2009-03-02)
The Mediterranean monk seal (Monachus monachus, Hermann 1779) has been listed as one of the most endangered mammals in the world. Due to its rarity, vulnerability and critical status, use of photo-identification is one of the widely used approaches to obtain essential data on these animals such as their population structure, migration behavior and critical habitats. In this study, 3D model construction from photographs was tested as an alternative photo-identification method for the monk seals since it does...
An inventory of medium and large mammal fauna in pine forests of beypazari through camera trapping
Mengüllüoğlu, Deniz; Bilgin, Cemal Can; Department of Biology (2010)
Information about large mammals in Turkey usually does not go further than species lists or annual counts of particular species such as the wild goat. Camera trapping is a very useful technique to overcome this deficiency by gathering information about species presence, numbers, habitat use and behavior. Hence, a one year long camera trap study was conducted to demonstrate the diversity, activity, distribution patterns, habitat preferences and interspecific interactions of medium and large mammals in a 148 ...
