Epizoic freshwater algae on Emys orbicularis (Testudinata : Emydidae) from the Central Anatolia region of Turkey
Özet
We surveyed the epizoic algae growing on Emys orbicularis from several sites in the Central Anatolia region of Turkey during the nesting season (May-August) of 2005. Fifty-three algae species were found on carapaces of thirty-five E. Orbicularis, with considerable variation in the algal communities from different sites.
