Young sediment samples were collected from different depths at 15 ostracods. stations. The benthic foraminifer, ostracod and mollusc faunas were investigated. 35 genera and 61 species of benthic foraminifers, 16 genera and 20 species of ostracods and 14 genera and 15 species of molluscs were identifi ed. Typical Aeegan foraminifer fauna was found to be dominant. Besides, individuals with colored tests or abnormal morphology, as well as alien species, which are frequently observed on the Aegean coasts were also observed in the study area. The foraminifer, ostracod and mollusc species also constituted typical Aegean fauna. It is known that the ecological conditions experienced of the Amphistegina lobifera Larsen individuals in typical Aegean benthic foraminifer assemblage have an effect on the abundance distribution. Ideal conditions for Amphis- tegina lobifera Larsen was found to be 18.00-32.00 m depth range and 19-20oC temperatures. CTD conductivity values gradually increased near to the hot water spring but a decrease in the number of individuals were observed. Chemical analyzes in sediment samples were performed with X-Ray Fluorescence Analysis Spectrometer (WDXRF). Heavy metal ingredients (Cr, Mn, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn and Pb) of the sediments were evaluated, concentrations were recorded as Cr>Ni>Mn in samples DB1-DB6 and also in DB15; Mn>Cr>Ni in DB8-DB11 and DB13-DB14; Cr>Mn>Ni in DB7 and in DB12. The radioactive elements U and Th were found to be high in DB9, DB10 and DB11. The Received Date: 30.03.2017 chemical and radioactive properties of the sediments were observed to affect the tests of benthic Accepted Date: 28.09.2017 foraminifers, where as no such effect was found on ostracod and mollusc tests. 1. Introduction ostracod and mollusc fauna living around them (Figures 1, 2 and 3). Both quantitative and qualitative This study was carried out to investigate the effects variations of the bottom sediments were evaluated of submarine hot springs, which are located on the under physical, chemical and radioactive conditions southern coasts of the Doğanbey Cape (the northern where micro and macro fauna assemblages are present end of Kuşadası Bay), on the benthic foraminifer, in this area. * Corresponding author: İpek F.

The micro and macro varies between 0.20-31.80 meters, bottom water faunas observed are similar with the ones observed temperatures vary between 19.95-23.32oC and the at the other studies carried out on the Aegean coasts bottom salinity values vary between 38.99-39.24‰ (Avşar and Meriç, 2001; Meriç and Avşar, 2001; (Table 1).
