For this purpose, the material collected from the area between the years 2005 and 2009, within the framework of different projects, was investigated. The investigation of the material taken from various biotopes ranging at depths between 0 and 100 m resulted in identification of 286 mollusc species and 27542 specimens belonging to them. Among the encountered species, Vitreolina cf. perminima (Jeffreys, 1883) is new record for the Turkish molluscan fauna and 18 species are being new records for the Turkish Levantine coast. A checklist of Iskenderun mollusc fauna is given based on the present study and the studies carried out beforehand, and a total of 424 moluscan species are known to be distributed in Iskenderun Bay. Keywords: Levantine Sea, Iskenderun Bay, Turkish coast, Mollusca, Checklist İskenderun Körfezi’nin Mollusca Faunası ve Bölgenin Tür Listesi Özet Bu çalışma İskenderun Körfezi (Levanten Denizi)’nde dağılım gösteren Mollusca türlerini tespit etmek için gerçekleştirilmiştir.

  • Draft Proposal for an Orkney Scallop Regulating Order
    2014 Draft Proposal for an Orkney Scallop Regulating Order Orkney Sustainable 4 Ferry Terminal Bu Kirkwall Pier, Kirkwall Orkney KW15 1HU orkneysustainablefi [1] Application to Establish a Regulating Order in terms of Sea Fisheries (Shellfish) Act 1967 for Scallop Species in and around Orkney Executive Summary Scallop fishermen in Orkney understand the principles of, and operate to ensure that, the Orkney scallop fishery can be handed as a sustainable fishery for the next generation. A result of their observation and their recent industry initiated research project ‘Spatial Dynamics in the Orkney Dive Fishery’ ( Annex VII) has prompted these fishermen seek a Regulating Order to provide for the maintenance and improvement of the fisheries for King Scallop (Pecten maximus) and Queen Scallop (Pecten opercularis) (known as queenies). As the effort being directed against the Orkney Scallop fishery does not solely arise from the operation of these progressive fishermen, having examined all the possibilities to ensure a sustainable fishery have concluded that the obtaining of a Regulating Order will be the most effective action in obtaining their objective. The King Scallop fishery makes an important contribution to Orkney’s total shellfish and whitefish industry and to the isles’ economy in general. Some shellfish stocks such as Buckies (Buccinum) and Queen Scallops in Orkney waters have been over-fished in the past and as a result their stocks have collapsed which means they can no longer contribute to the local economy nor be used as part of a flexible seasonal fishing plan by fishermen. Without proper evidence it is not possible to say what the state of many stocks are.

  • Contrasting Patterns of Population Structure and Gene Flow Facilitate
    OPEN Heredity (2017) 119, 35–48 Official journal of the Genetics Society www.nature.com/hdy ORIGINAL ARTICLE Contrasting patterns of population structure and gene flow facilitate exploration of connectivity in two widely distributed temperate octocorals LP Holland1, TL Jenkins1 and JR Stevens Connectivity is an important component of metapopulation dynamics in marine systems and can influence population persistence, migration rates and conservation decisions associated with Marine Protected Areas (MPAs). In this study, we compared the genetic diversity, gene flow and population structure of two octocoral species, Eunicella verrucosa and Alcyonium digitatum, in the northeast Atlantic (ranging from the northwest of Ireland and the southern North Sea, to southern Portugal), using two panels of 13 and 8 microsatellite loci, respectively. Our results identified regional genetic structure in E. verrucosa partitioned between populations from southern Portugal, northwest Ireland and Britain/France; subsequent hierarchical analysis of population structure also indicated reduced gene flow between southwest Britain and northwest France. However, over a similar geographical area, A. digitatum showed little evidence of population structure, suggesting high gene flow and/or a large effective population size; indeed, the only significant genetic differentiation detected in A. digitatum occurred between North Sea samples and those from the English Channel/northeast Atlantic. In both species the vast majority of gene flow originated from sample sites within regions, with populations in southwest Britain being the predominant source of contemporary exogenous genetic variants for the populations studied. Overall, historical patterns of gene flow appeared more complex, though again southwest Britain appeared to be an important source of genetic variation for both species.
