    Marine benthic Cyanobacteria in Northern Cyprus (Eastern Mediterranean Sea)
    (Turkiye Klinikleri Journal of Medical Sciences, 2015) Ulcay S.; Taşkin E.; Kurt O.; Öztürk M.
    In this paper, 47 taxa (15 Chroococcales, 20 Oscillatoriales, and 12 Nostocales) of Cyanobacteria that were collected along the coasts of Northern Cyprus (Eastern Mediterranean Sea) are reported. Aphanocapsa litoralis (Hansgirg) Komarek & Anagnostidis, Coelosphaerium minutissimum Lemmermann, Chroococcus cf. turicensis (Nageli) Hansgirg, Chroococcus varius A.Braun, Spirulina tenerrima Kutzing ex Gomont, Calothrix fuscoviolacea P.L.Crouan & H.M.Crouan ex Bornet & Flahault, Rivularia nitida C.Agardh ex Bornet & Flahault, and Scytonematopsis pilosa (Harvey ex Bornet & Flahault) I.Umezaki & M.Watanabe are recorded for the first time from the Mediterranean Sea, and 35 taxa are also recorded for the first time from Northern Cyprus. Data are also provided concerning the geographical, morphological, and ecological distribution of each species. Sampling was based on 4 different localities (Korucam, Girne, Dip Karpaz, and Gazimağusa) in the Northern Cyprus marine ecosystem supralittoral zone at a depth of 30-35 m in the infralittoral zone between 2006 and 2008. © TÜBİTAK.

    Notes on the thermal habitat: Thirteen new records for the freshwater algal flora of Turkey
    (National Institute of Science Communication and Policy Research, 2020) Öztürk S.
    Thermal springs are extreme environments for organisms. Cyanobacteria are the group that adapts with success in these environments where there is little diversity of life. In this study, eight different thermal water springs were studied in Kütahya province. Thirteen cyanobacteria taxa were identified as new records for the freshwater algal flora of Turkey. Some morphological and taxonomical characteristics of the taxa were briefly described in this paper, with original photos. © 2020 National Institute of Science Communication and Information Resources (NISCAIR).
