Abstract
The endemic species of the genus Carabus occuring in Turkey are presented in this study. The data of the endemic species of Turkish Carabus recorded from our previous data collections, catalogues, and other various papers prepared on Carabinae, up until now were used. As a result, 35 endemic species and subspecies of Carabus in Turkey were recorded. The endemic species list of Turkish Carabus are presented together with distribution information. Additionally, the biotopes, density of species, and general information about whether they are officially under threat as a species is also presented. This information is very important for ecological and biological control, and for other such studies. Moreover, photos of some endemic Carabus are presented to be used in the diagnosis of these species. The aim of this study is to contribute a synthesis of information on the Turkish Carabus endemic species here in Turkey.
期刊介绍:
Cessation. Ekoloji is an international journal that focuses on papers that report results from original research on all disciplines engaged in the field of environmental research. We welcome articles that cover the entire spectrum of environmental problems and environmental pollutants, whether chemical, biological or physical. Its coverage extends to all environmentally related issues: air and water pollution, solid waste, noise, recycling, natural resources, ecology and environmental protection. It includes articles on basic and applied environmental pollution research, including environmental engineering and environmental health. All types of pollution are covered, including atmospheric pollutants, detergents, fertilizers, industrial effluents, metals, mining wastes, oil, pesticides, plastics, radioactive materials and sewage. It also includes research papers on ecological and environmental issues such as climate change, biodiversity. The primary criteria for publication are scientific quality and ecological/environmental significance.
The journal will be read and contributed to by biologists, applied ecologists, environmental scientists, natural resource specialists, environmental engineers, environmental health specialists, agro-ecologists, veterinaries, agricultural engineers, landscape planners and designers. The journal welcomes full "research papers" and short "research notes", only in the English language.
