Due to this situation, various policies were developed to ensure the correct use and protection of natural resources both in our country and in other world states. The EU Water Framework Directive (WFD) implemented by the member states of the European Union (EU) is one of these directives. According to WFD, benthic macroinvertebrates are considered as one of the most important indicators. Pauls et al. (2008) stated that among the important benthic macroinvertebrates living in streams, members of order Trichoptera are used as a biological monitoring tool in determining water quality. When sedimentation, industrial pollution, mining and agriculture, sewage waste, acid rains accumulate on the water surface, these organisms are damaged (Graf et al., 2008). Order Trichoptera are represented approximately with 49 families, 616 genera and 14.548 species in the world (Morse, 2011). Order Trichoptera are represented by 22 families, 461 species and 39 subspecies in Turkey (Darılmaz & Salur, 2015; Küçükbasmacı & Kıyak, 2017; Sipahiler, 2018a). In Turkey, as well as various faunistic studies were conducted to uncover the Trichoptera fauna, in ecological-based studies, the members of this order have been widely investigated as biological indicators. (Çakın, 1983; Darılmaz & Salur, 2015). Ulupınar Stream, chosen as a study area, is flowed between Olimpos and Çıralı Bays in Antalya. Since the stream is flowed into the intensive tourism areas, many places such as pensions and restaurants are encountered on the stream or its edges. This study aims to determine species of Trichoptera fauna of Ulupınar Stream, to determine the water quality used by physicochemical parameters and to examine the relationships between physicochemical parameters and Trichoptera species. Method Study Area Ulupınar Stream, which has formed the Çıralı Plain and its coast, is born from the 900 m high slopes in the northwest of Ulupınar Village. The stream, springs from the karstic creeks, flows under the name of Hayıt Creek up to Kumluca - Antalya Highway, and then combines with Kuruseki Creek, coming from the east of Antalya with the branches of Cehennem Creek from the west of Antalya, and flows by name 60 2 Aynur Kayan / TurkishTurkish Journal Journal of Waterof Water Science Science & Management & Management 5 (1) (2021) / 59 - 79 ISSN: 2536 474X / e-ISSN: 2564-7334 Volume: 5 Issue: 1 Year: 2021 of Ulupınar Stream. The total length of the stream flowing in a tectono-karstic groove, is about 13 km. The outfall section, where Ulupınar Stream disombogues into the Mediterranean Sea, generally turns north and sometimes turns south. Since the dominant wind on the shore blows from the southeast direction, the outfall of the stream is mostly shifted to the north. Although plane tree is the dominant vegetation of the valley floor of Ulupınar Stream, and on the slopes of the valley, the dominant vegetation is red pine, almost all species of maquis are common. The characteristics of sampling stations were presented in Table 1. Collection of Trichoptera Samples Samples were collected by 20 minutes by kicking and sweeping methods with kick-net (250 µm mesh). The samples were taken from several different sections at each station in order to include all possible microhabitats. All the samples collected were immediately fixed in formaldehyde (4%) in the field. Trichoptera individuals were taken to SDU Hydrobiology Laboratory and stored in 70% alcohol. The obtained samples were examined under a stereomicroscope and evaluated qualitatively and quantitatively. Edington & Hildrew (1995), Pitsch (1993),

  • List of Animal Species with Ranks October 2017
    Washington Natural Heritage Program List of Animal Species with Ranks October 2017 The following list of animals known from Washington is complete for resident and transient vertebrates and several groups of invertebrates, including odonates, branchipods, tiger beetles, butterflies, gastropods, freshwater bivalves and bumble bees. Some species from other groups are included, especially where there are conservation concerns. Among these are the Palouse giant earthworm, a few moths and some of our mayflies and grasshoppers. Currently 857 vertebrate and 1,100 invertebrate taxa are included. Conservation status, in the form of range-wide, national and state ranks are assigned to each taxon. Information on species range and distribution, number of individuals, population trends and threats is collected into a ranking form, analyzed, and used to assign ranks. Ranks are updated periodically, as new information is collected. We welcome new information for any species on our list.

SGMA seeks to achieve sustainability, which is defined as the absence of several undesirable results, including “depletions of interconnected surface water that have significant and unreasonable adverse impacts on beneficial users of surface water” (Water Code §10721). The Nature Conservancy (TNC) is a science-based, nonprofit organization with a mission to conserve the lands and waters on which all life depends. Like humans, plants and animals often rely on groundwater for survival, which is why TNC helped develop, and is now helping to implement, SGMA. Earlier this year, we launched the Groundwater Resource Hub, which is an online resource intended to help make it easier and cheaper to address environmental requirements under SGMA. As a first step in addressing when depletions might have an adverse impact, The Nature Conservancy recommends identifying the beneficial users of surface water, which include environmental users. This is a critical step, as it is impossible to define “significant and unreasonable adverse impacts” without knowing what is being impacted. To make this easy, we are providing this letter and the accompanying documents as the best available science on the freshwater species within the boundary of your groundwater sustainability agency (GSA).

  • The Biogeographic Distribution of Caddisflies (Insecta
    THE BIOGEOGRAPHIC DISTRIBUTION OF CADDISFLIES (INSECTA: TRICHOPTERA) WITHIN THE SOUTH -CENTRAL UNITED STATES Heather A. Perry, M.S.

The Biogeographic Distribution of Caddisflies (Insecta: Trichoptera) within the South-Central United States. Doctor of Philosophy (Biology), May 2018, 239 pp., 24 tables, 49 figures, references, 212 titles. Through the use of natural history records, published literature, and personal sampling (2011-2016) a total of 454 caddisfly species represented by 24 families and 93 genera were documented from the south-central United States. Two Hydroptilidae species were collected during the 2011-2016 collection efforts that are new to the region: Hydroptilia scheringi and Mayatrichia tuscaloosa. Eightteen species are endemic and 30 are considered species of concern by either federal or state agencies. The majority of each of these groups is Hydroptilidae, or microcaddisflies. Trichoptera community structure, by minimum number of species, was analysed in conjunction with large-scale geographical factors to determine which factor illustrated caddisfly community structure across the region. Physiographic provinces compared to other geographic factors analyzed best-represented caddisfly communities with a minimum of 10 or more species. Statistically, Hydrologic Unit Code 4 (HUC 4) was the most significant geographical factor but low number of samples representing this variable rendered it less representative of caddisfly community structure for the study area.
