(2021). Determination of benthic macroinvertebrate fauna and some physicochemical properties of Kanak Dam Lake (Şarkışla–Sivas). Aquatic Sciences and Engineering, 36(1), 1-10. ABSTRACT This paper aims to identify the benthic macroinvertebrate fauna and some physicochemical char- acteristics of Kanak Dam Lake located in Şarkışla, Sivas. For this, water and sediment samples were taken from 4 stations of the lake between August 2016 to July 2017 at monthly intervals, and a detailed physicochemical analysis was carried out on these samples. While the identification of benthic macroinvertebrates was made to the lowest possible taxa (species, genus or families), some physicochemical characteristics of the lake water such as temperature, pH, electrical conduc- tivity, dissolved oxygen, SO4, PO4, NO3-N, NO2-N, Mg, Ca, total hardness, salinity and Cl levels were determined using various titrimetric and spectrophotometric methods. As a result, a total of ORCID IDs of the author: 30 taxa were identified and were classified as Oligochaeta, Chironomidae, Gastropoda and other M.T.D. 0000-0002-4828-2575; Insecta (Ephemeroptera, Trichoptera, Hemiptera (adult), Odonata, Plecoptera and larval Coleop- M.Ö.L. 0000-0002-3014-8060; tera).

The study of the Portuguese marine ichthyofauna has a long historical tradition, rooted back in the 18th Century. Here we present an annotated checklist of the marine fishes from Portuguese waters, including the area encompassed by the proposed extension of the Portuguese continental shelf and the Economic Exclusive Zone (EEZ). The list is based on historical literature records and taxon occurrence data obtained from natural history collections, together with new revisions and occurrences.

In this study, Cr, Ni and Zn levels were determined by atomic absorption spectrophotometry in edible muscle and skin tissues of Cyprinus carpio in Çamlıgöze Dam Lake located at Central Anatolian region of Turkey. The maximum levels were found to be 0.12 (Cr), 2.15 (Ni), 0.51 (Zn) µg/g in the muscle and 0.15 (Cr), 2.07 (Ni), 1.97 (Zn) µg/g in the skin of Cyprinus carpio. It was determined that Ni was the highest metal in tissues. The highest Cr and Zn levels were determined in the skin of Cyprinus carpio, whereas the highest Ni levels were measured in the muscle. The heavy metal accumulation orders for the tissues were as follows: Ni>Zn>Cr in Çamlıgöze Dam Lake. There was important statistical differences, especially at the level of zinc accumulation in tissues (p<0.001). There was a significant and positive correlation between age, total length, weight and metal levels for Cr (r>0.25, p<0.05) in the muscle and skin of Cyprinus carpio in Çamlıgöze Dam Lake.

ZooKeys 441: 63–90. doi: 10.3897/zookeys.441.7461 Abstract A checklist of the family Chironomidae (Diptera) recorded from Finland is presented. Keywords Finland, Chironomidae, species list, biodiversity, faunistics Introduction There are supposedly at least 15 000 species of chironomid midges in the world (Armitage et al. 1995, but see Pape et al. 2011) making it the largest family among the aquatic insects. The European chironomid fauna consists of 1262 species (Sæther and Spies 2013). In Finland, 780 species can be found, of which 37 are still undescribed (Paasivirta 2012). The species checklist written by B. Lindeberg on 23.10.1979 (Hackman 1980) included 409 chironomid species. Twenty of those species have been removed from the checklist due to various reasons. The total number of species increased in the 1980s to 570, mainly due to the identification work by me and J. Tuiskunen (Bergman and Jansson 1983, Tuiskunen and Lindeberg 1986).

In marine habitats, 965 species (plus two introduced) are found, with the Labridae, Serranidae and Gobiidae being the largest families; 56.7 % of these species live in shallow coral reefs, 33.7 % inside the fringing reef, 28.0 % in shallow rocky reefs, 16.8 % on sand bottoms, 14.0 % in deep reefs, 11.9 % on the reef flat, and 11.1 % in estuaries. 63 species are first records for Réunion. Zoogeographically, 65 % of the fish fauna have a widespread Indo-Pacific distribution, while only 2.6 % are Mascarene endemics, and 0.7 % Réunion endemics. The classification of the following species is changed in the present paper: Anguilla labiata (Peters, 1852) [pre- viously A. bengalensis labiata]; Microphis millepunctatus (Kaup, 1856) [previously M. brachyurus millepunctatus]; Epinephelus oceanicus (Lacepède, 1802) [previously E. fasciatus (non Forsskål in Niebuhr, 1775)]; Ostorhinchus fasciatus (White, 1790) [previously Apogon fasciatus]; Mulloidichthys auriflamma (Forsskål in Niebuhr, 1775) [previously Mulloidichthys vanicolensis (non Valenciennes in Cuvier & Valenciennes, 1831)]; Stegastes luteobrun- neus (Smith, 1960) [previously S.

This is the first report of a pelagic fish, M. lanceolatus used directly as food by a land bird, C. macrorhynchos. This observation is an example of a rare food chain connecting directly a marine fish to a land bird, contributing to the study of marine and terrestrial food chain interactions. Key words : Corvus macrorhynchos, Fukui Prefecture, food habits, Masturus lanceolatus, stranding Pelagic animals and terrestrial animals live in carcasses by C. macrorhynchos are recorded for very different environments. Therefore, it seems the first time. Since the relationship between M. that there is almost no connection between the lanceolatus and C. macrorhynchos observed in two. However, aquatic animals and land animals Yoshida & Sawai (2019) was considered to be a are interconnected within the complex food web, rare example of a food chain linking a pelagic fish as stated in the phrase “the forest is longing for to a land bird, the present report is an elaboration the sea, the sea is longing for the forest” (LFOO, of this phenomenon that is more common than 2017).
