(Araneae: Linyphiidae) is described based on male specimens from Mersin Province in Turkey. Four species, namely Araeoncus tauricus Gnelitsa, 2005; Erigonoplus globipes (L. Koch, 1872); Megalepthyphantes pseudocollinus Saaristo, 1997; and Styloctetor romanus (O. P.-Cambridge, 1872), belonging to this family are new records for the spider fauna of Turkey. Styloctetor Simon, 1884 has been recorded as a new genus for Turkey. Data on collected localities, distribution throughout the world, and genitalia figures of each species are presented.

Devletle temasımızda daha az zaman harcamak ve kamu yönetiminin çözüm üretme noktasında daha etkin olduğu bir yapıya ulaşmak istiyoruz. Bu noktadan bakınca devlet teşkilatının saha uygulamalarını takip etmek, oradaki sorunları veya iyi uygulamaları yerinde görmek, oradan yapılan tespitlerle merkezi politikaları belirlemek, modern bir yaklaşım olarak kendini göstermektedir. Tıpkı özel sektör gibi zaman ve para kaynağının etkin kullanımını temin etmek, bunun denetimini sağlamak, 21. Yüzyıl devlet yapılarının olmazsa olmazı halini almaktadır. İçişleri Bakanlığı bünyesinde bir süredir uygulamakta olduğumuz ve kısa adı İZDES olan “İzleme ve Değerlendirme Sistemi”, işte bu düşünceler ve modern yönetim anlayışının bir gereği olarak ortaya çıkmış; kendi adına çok faydalı sonuçlar ortaya koymuştur. Bakanlığın tüm taşra birimlerinin ziyaret edildiği, sorunların ve yapılması gerekenlerin sahadaki insanlarla karşılıklı istişare edildiği, işlerin ve kapasitenin doğru bir envanterinin ortaya koyulabildiği, aynı zamanda vatandaşın beklentilerinin de öğrenildiği bu sistem, kamu yönetiminin verimini arttırmada bugün olduğu gibi gelecekte de çok önemli adımlara vesile olacaktır. Adana özelinde gerçekleştirilen İZDES çalışmalarının geniş kapsamlı bir özeti şeklindeki bu rapor, ilçe bazında olması sebebiyle de ayrı bir önem arz etmektedir. Adana ilindeki bakanlık faaliyetlerimizin net bir fotoğrafını ortaya koyan bu çalışma, inanıyorum ki hem diğer şehirlerimiz için hem de diğer kamu kurumlarımız için örnek teşkil edecektir. Bu vesileyle hem raporda emeği geçen hem de sahada vatandaşımıza hizmet üreten bütün mesai arkadaşlarımıza teşekkür ediyor, başarılı çalışmalarının devamını diliyorum.

Bu kullanım çoğu zaman büyük yerleşik uygarlıklar düzeyinde ya da kavimler göçünün yolu şeklinde olmuştur. Her iki durumda da, topraklarımız insanlığın ortak kalıtına ev sahipliği yapmıştır. Bu kalıtların bir kısmı toprağın altında kültür katmanlarında gizemini korumuş, bir kısmı da bin yıllardır tüm olumsuz koşullara karşın zamana direnmiş ve anıt olma özelliğini sürdürmektedir. İnsanlık tarihinin kesintisiz tüm evrelerinde iskan edilen, Anadolu toprakları neredeyse bir Açık Hava Müzesi gibidir. Sanayi Devrimi ile ortaya çıkan, çevrenin çok hızlı kullanılması sonucu kirletilmesi ve bitirilmesi sürecinden en çok etkilenen doğal ve tarihsel mirastır. Tek düze yaşamdan daha karmaşık bir yaşama geçmiş olan toplumumuzun yaşam biçimi ve toplumsal tercihleri de değişmiştir. Çağdaş üretim tarzının alt yapısı ve artan nüfus, ülkemizde neredeyse müdahale edilmemiş toprak parçası bırakmamış gibidir. Böylesine yoğun yapılaşma taleplerinin olduğu bir ülkede tek bir kurulun, tüm halkın istemlerine, istenilen zamanda ve etkinlikte müdahalesi düşünülemez. Böylesine önemli ve geniş coğrafyaya yayılmış bu tarihi mirasın, merkezden tek bir kurul ile korunması ve geleceğe aktarılmasının mümkün olmadığı, yaşadığımız toplumsal pratikle görülmüştür.

Although, various biodiversity studies have been already conducted with local grape varieties in different regions of Anatolia, our aim is to contribute to gain better knowledge on the biodiversity of historical grape varieties in North, Adana region of South Anatolia. In the present study, microsatellites were used for pre‐selection of 27 collection varieties among 72 grape accessions obtained from National Germplasm Vineyards, for further determination of genetic relatedness among studied grape accessions amplified fragment length polymorphims (AFLPs) were utilized. The unweighted pair group method with arithmatic mean (UPMGA) cluster and principal component analyses revealed that Saimbeyli accessions form a distict group which are distantly related to collection varieties from all over Turkey. The results of this study revealed the genetic similarities of some isolated historical Anatolian grape varieties cultivated for decades in local vineyards in Saimbeyli, Adana. To our knowledge, this is the first study conducted with these varieties. Further preservation and use of these varieties will be helpful to avoid genetic erosion and diversity loss in this part of Anatolia.

  • Hygropetric and Litter-Inhabiting Spiders (Araneae) from the Abruzzo Apennines (Central Italy)
    Arachnol. Mitt. 37: 15-26 Nürnberg, Juli 2009 Hygropetric and litter-inhabiting spiders (Araneae) from the Abruzzo Apennines (Central Italy) Marco Isaia, Giuseppe Osella & Giovanna Pannunzio Abstract: We present the results of a study of spider material extracted by means of Berlese apparatus from wet mosses and by litter sieving in broadleaf woods within several natural reserves of the Abruzzo region (Central Italy). The main aim of the work is to contribute to the knowledge of the spider fauna of the Apen- nines; currently one of the lesser known in Italy. In total, 520 spiders, belonging to 49 species and 14 families were collected. The most abundant and diverse family was Linyphiidae, with 278 individuals belonging to 22 species. Altogether we provide 28 new records for the Abruzzo region, including two species of Theridiidae, twenty of Linyphiidae, four of Hahniidae and two of Thomisidae. We also present additional unpublished records of several rare, litter-inhabiting species collected by litter sieving in the same area. Data on habitat preferences and details on the Italian distribution of the rarest species are presented. Key words: Berlese apparatus, Dysderidae, Linyphiidae, litter sieving, National Park of Gran Sasso, National Park of Monti della Laga, regional fauna Hygropetric habitats become established on rocky published records of several rare, litter-inhabiting or soil surfaces, with thin water films moving down species collected by litter sieving in the same area, in a mostly laminar flow. This habitat is colonised including details on their Italian distribution and mainly by bryophytes (mosses and peat-mosses) habitat preference. and often harbours unique assemblages of arthro- pods, characterised by endemic or rare species.

MARUSIK Institute for Biological Problems of the North RAS, Portovaya Str. 18, Magadan, Russia. E-mail: [email protected] Zoological Museum, University of Turku, FI-20014 Turku, Finland Abstract Ozyptila balkarica Ovtsharenko, 1979, belonging to the Holarctic Ozyptila rauda-group was thought to be a junior syn- onym of O. orientalis Kulczyński, 1926, because of its indistinguishable females. Comparison of topotype males from Caucasus and Kamchatka revealed clear differences in the shape of copulatory organs and carapace patterns; thus the junior name is revalidated here. Because the differences between the two taxa are of the same level as between O. orien- talis and O. basegica Esyunin, 1992, which is considered a subspecies of the former species, subspecific rank to O. ori- entalis balkarica stat. nov. is suggested. Males of the two subspecies are illustrated, and a synopsis of the whole O. rauda-group accounting 14 species and subspecies is given. O. sedotmikha Levy, 2007, from Israel was found to belong to this group. Distribution of all species is mapped.

The new species re- sembles the poorly known O. umbraculorum Simon, 1932, recorded from France, Portugal and Spain, but is clearly a distinct species. Illustrations of both taxa are presented. Due to the isolated position of both species in the genus, we proposed a new species group – umbraculorum, characterised by a large inter- mediate apophysis (ITA), armed with well-developed teeth, and a long scimitar-shaped tegular apophysis. The females have similar epigynes with pan-shaped median septum. Key words: Description, comparison, Ozyptila, umbraculorum species group Introduction The crab spiders of the genus Ozyptila Simon, 1864 the text shows that he had female specimens. Later, are common in a range of ground habitats such as URONES (1985) and JIMÉNEZ -VALVER D E (2002) pre- moss, detritus and leaf litter. Currently, the genus in- sented new illustrations of female and male, respec- cludes 103 species and five subspecies, 16 of which tively, of O.
