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.

Rapport MMNHN-SPN 2013 - 19, 201 p. Résumé : Les études de phylogénie moléculaire sur les Lépidoptères Rhopalocères et Zygènes sont de plus en plus nombreuses ces dernières années modifiant la systématique et la taxinomie de ces deux groupes. Une mise à jour complète est réalisée dans ce travail. Un cadre décisionnel a été élaboré pour les niveaux spécifiques et infra-spécifique avec une approche intégrative de la taxinomie. Ce cadre intégre notamment un aspect biogéographique en tenant compte des zones-refuges potentielles pour les espèces au cours du dernier maximum glaciaire. Cette démarche permet d’avoir une approche homogène pour le classement des taxa aux niveaux spécifiques et infra-spécifiques. Les conséquences pour l’acquisition des données dans le cadre d’un inventaire national sont développées. Summary : Studies on molecular phylogenies of Butterflies and Burnets have been increasingly frequent in the recent years, changing the systematics and taxonomy of these two groups.

Accepted 11-IX-2008. Abstract: Metric and meristic characters are important to identify fish species and their habitat peculiarities. There are many species that belong to the fish genus Barbus, which is found in tropical and extratropical regions, but there are few studies covering the Coruh basin. Two subspecies of Barbus were found in the Coruh River sys- tem of Eastern Anatolia, Turkey: Barbus plebejus escherichi and Barbus capito capito. We collected specimens in seven localities for measurement. The number of vertebra were determined radiographically. Some specimens of B. capito capito have a sharper snout in the segments of Coruh where the water flows faster, suggesting a modification related to current. The biometric measurements vary geographically and could be related to abiotic and biotic factors in the habitat. Rev. Biol. Trop. 57 (1-2): 159-165. Epub 2009 June 30.

We explore the influence of each gene region on the support given to each node of the most parsimonious tree derived from a combined analysis of all three genes using Partitioned Bremer Support. We also explore the influence of assuming equal weights for all characters in the combined analysis by investigating the stability of clades to different transition/transversion weighting schemes. We find many strongly supported and stable clades in the Nymphalinae. We are also able to identify ‘rogue’

  • Improving the Knowledge on Romanian Rhopalocera, Including
    Nota lepid. 31 (1): 3 – 23 3 Improving the knowledge on Romanian Rhopalocera, including the rediscovery of Polyommatus amandus (Schneider, 1792) (Lycaenidae) and an application of DNA-based identifi cation VLAD DINCĂ 1 & ROGER VILA 2 1 Departament de Genètica i Biologia Molecular, Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, Bellaterra, Barcelona, Spain; e-mail: [email protected] 2 ICREA and Departament de Genètica i Biologia Molecular, Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, Bellaterra, Barcelona, Spain, e-mail: [email protected] Abstract. From May 19th to June 8th of 2007, the authors undertook lepidopterological research in 29 localities in Romania, several of which are poorly or totally unstudied from a lepidopterological point of view. 105 taxa were identifi ed, out of which seven receive special attention in the text, with comments on their distribution, ecology and conservation status. Polyommatus amandus (Schneider, 1792) (Lycaenidae) is recorded for the fi rst time in Romania after 28 years. We provide the fi rst record from Muntenia for Cupido (Everes) decolorata (Staudinger, 1886) (Lycaenidae), and the third known Romanian location for Pseudophilotes bavius egea (Herrich-Schäffer, 1852) (Lycaenidae). Lepidoptera DNA-based identifi cation was used for species identifi cation based on larval stages. This technique confi rmed the discovery of Zerynthia polyxena ([Denis & Schiffermüller], 1775) (Papilionidae) in south- ern Dobrogea and its rediscovery in the entire province after 80 years. Introduction Although the Romanian butterfl y fauna has been studied for more than 150 years (e.g. Fuss 1850; Franzenau 1852, 1856, 1859; Mann 1866), there are still large gaps regard- ing the distribution and conservation status of many of the species known to occur within the country’s territory.

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.

District, Adana 3University of Cukurova, Adana 4Mustafa Kemal University, Antakya 1. Introduction aquifer (see Figure 1.1). This research was conducted within the frame- work of a multi-disciplinary bi-lateral project sup- ported by the Turkish Scientific and Technological Research Council (TUBITAK) and the Research Institute for Humanity and Nature-Japan (RIHN). A total of 8 subgroups conducted their research independently but in coordination of the ”Impact of Climate Change on Agricultural Production in Arid Areas” ICCAP. For several reasons, the Sey- han River Basin was selected as the pilot research area for the project. The water resources of the basin were studied by the International Research Center For Karst Water Resources (UKAM) of the Hacettepe University (Ankara) in cooperation with the DSI, University of Cukurova in Adana and Mustafa Kemal University in Antakya. The Seyhan River Basin, located at a semi-arid part of Turkey-having significant water and land resources potential- was selected as a pilot study area, to inspect the vulnerable components of wa- ter resources (surface water and groundwater) sys- tems, and define and quantify their vulnerabil- ity to climate change. The Seyhan River Basin (SRB), one of the major water resources basins in Turkey is located in the Eastern Mediterranean Figure 1.1 Geographical location and division of geographical region of Turkey (Figure 1.1).
