dc.description.abstractPhylum Tardigrada, which has been quite a little studied both around the worldand Turkey, belongs to members of a metazoan. In this study eight moss andlichen samples were collected and investigated from a variety of elevations of theVerçenik Mountain in Rize (Turkey). In total 62 specimens, 11 exivium and 10eggs of tardigrades were found. Five species were identified, and they belong togenera: Acanthechiniscus, Pseudechiniscus, Macrobiotus, Paramacrobiotus and,Ramazzottius. Three of them are new records for Turkish fauna i.e.Acanthechiniscus victor (Ehrenberg, 1853), Pseudechiniscus ramazzottiiramazzottii Maucci, 1952 and Macrobiotus spectabilis Thulin, 1928. Includingthese three species, the tardigrade fauna of Turkey increased to 54. In this paper,we present the previous study a full list of the known high mountain and alpinetardigrade species with their localities. All specimens are deposited in the AquaticAnimals Research Laboratory at Ankara University.
