“…In contrast, ixodid tick fauna of Turkey appear to consist of only 39 species from six genera (Kurtpinar 1954, Hoogstraal 1959, Merdivenci 1969, Ozkan 1978, Erman et al 2007, Bursali et al 2008, 2009 because of very limited number of systematic studies on ticks.…”

Species Diversity of Ixodid Ticks Feeding on Humans in Amasya, Turkey: Seasonal Abundance and Presence of Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever Virus

Ticks (Acari:Ixodidae) are important pests transmitting tick-borne diseases such as Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) to humans. Between 2002 and 2009, numerous CCHF cases were reported in Turkey, including Amasya province. In the current study, species diversity, seasonal abundance of ticks, and presence of CCHF virus (CCHFV) in ticks infesting humans in several districts of Amasya province were determined. In the survey, a total of 2,528 ixodid ticks were collected from humans with tick bite from April to November 2008 and identified to species. Hyalomma marginatum (18.6%), Rhipicephalus bursa (10.3%), Rhipicephalus sanguineus (5.7%), Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) annulatus (2.2%), Dermacentor marginatus (2.5%), Haemaphysalis parva (3.6%), and Ixodes ricinus (1.6%) were the most prevalent species among 26 ixodid tick species infesting humans in Amasya province. Hyalomma franchinii Tonelli & Rondelli, 1932, was a new record for the tick fauna of Turkey. The most abundant species were the members of Hyalomma and Rhipicephalus through summer and declined in fall, whereas relative abundances of Ixodes and Dermacentor ticks were always low on humans in the province. Of 25 Hyalomma tick pools tested, seven pools were CCHFV positive by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. Results indicated diversity of ixodid tick species infesting humans was very high, abundance of ticks changed by season, and ticks infesting humans had potential for transmitting CCHFV.

“…In the last two decades lichenological studies in Turkey have increased remarkably (e.g., Candan & Özdemir Türk 2008, Halıcı & Aksoy 2009, John & Nimis 1998, Kınalıo"lu 2009, Özdemir Türk 2003, Öztürk et al 2005, Yazici & Aptroot 2008. However, the lichen composition of some provinces is still insufficiently known.…”

314 taxa belonging to 99 genera are reported from Ordu province in the Central Black Sea region of Turkey. 263 taxa are reported for the first time from the province, and 3 species, Arthopyrenia persoonii, Sphinctrina leucopoda and Verrucaria submersella, are new records for Turkey. Key words-Aydo"an hill, biota, biodiversity 2_ Kadir Kınalıo!lu mouths. The wide altitudinal variation, rough topography, influence of the adjacent sea, and big streams of the Ordu provide a wide range of climatic zones. However, oceanic climate prevails in Ordu. The mean rainfall per year is 1029.2 mm, the highest precipitations occur in October and December and the lowest in May and July. On average there are 178 rainy days and 6 snowy days on a yearly basis. The mean annual maximum temperature is 27.5°C in August, while the mean minimum temperature is 3.9°C in February. The mean annual relative humidity is 76%. Vegetation cover varies with climate and altitude. Up to 1500 m, have deciduous trees of Alnus spp., Carpinus spp., Castanea sativa, Fagus orientalis, Quercus spp. and shrubs such as Corylus spp. and Rhododendron spp. prevail. Corylus spp. are important crop plants as well. At 1500-1900 m the forest consists of Picea orientalis together with Pinus sylvestris (Atalay 1994). These forests provide suitable habitats for a rich lichen flora. Above 1900 m alpine meadows are dominant. Materials and methods The collections were identified with standart idendification methods of various lichen guides (
