Four novel Myxobolus species (Cnidaria: Myxozoa) infecting Anatolian khramulya Capoeta tinca (Cyprinidae) in northern Turkey.

We identified Myxobolus anatolicus Pekmezci, Yardimci, Yilmaz & Polat, 2014 and 4 novel Myxobolus species from the Anatolian khramulya Capoeta tinca (Cyprinidae) in northern Turkey based on morphology, histology, and phylogenetic analysis. M. karaeri sp.

[The importance of gamma irradiations with caesium-137 for Hyalomma anatolicum anatolicum (Metastigmata, Ixodidae) control].

In this study, male ticks belonging to the Hyalomma anatolicum anatolicum species were subjected to gamma radiation doses of 5, 10, 15, 20 and 50 Gy, emitted by a gamma-ray source of Caesium 137. In females that fed with these male ticks, proportional to the increase in radiation dose, the period of feeding was found to shorten. A decrease was demonstrated in the number of engorged female ticks, engorgement weights, number of laying ticks and number of eggs.
