DergiPark: 245959trakyafbdBu çalışma, Gala gölü milli parkında dominant olarak bulunan Typha spp., Ceratophyllum spp. ve Nymphaea spp. üzerinde yaşayan Cladocera ve Copepoda nın tespiti ve makrofit tercihlerini ortaya çıkarılması amacıyla gerçekleştirildi. Typha spp., Ceratophyllum spp. ve Nymphaea spp. üzerinde 8 Cladocera, 5 Copepoda türü bulunmuştur. Cladocera dan Chydorus sphaericus tüm makrofitler üzerinde bulunurken; C. latus Ceratophyllum spp. yi; Pleuroxus aduncus Nymphaea spp. yi; Alona guttata, A.costata A.rectangula, A.guadrangularis, Oxyurella tenuicaudis Typha spp. yi tercih etmektedir. Copepoda dan Nitocra hibernica yine tüm makrofitlerde yaşarken; N.lacustris Typha spp. ve Ceratophyllum spp. yi; Onychocamptus mohammed Nymphaea sp yi; Horsiella breviconis, H.trisetosa Typha spp. yı tercih etmektedir.This study was performed in order to determine the Cladocera and Copepoda living on Typha spp., Ceratophyllum spp. and Nymphaea spp. constituting the dominant species in Gala Lake National Park and to reveal their macrophyt preferences. 8 Cladocera and 5 Copepoda species were determined on these plants. The cladoceran Chydorus sphaericus was found on all macrophytes while C. latus preferred Ceratophyllum spp., Pleuroxus aduncus preferred Nymphaea spp. and Alona guttata, A.costata, A. rectangula, A.guadrangularis and Oxyurella tenuicaudis preferred Typha spp. The Copepoda species Nitocra hibernica was found on all macrophytes while N. lacustris preferred Typha spp. and Ceratophyllum spp., Onychocamptus mohammed prefered Nymphaea spp. and Horsiella breviconis and H.trisetosa prefered Typha spp
