Abstract
The Hydrobiidae family is the most common and diverse taxa of freshwater gastropods in the aquatic ecosystem. Among Hydrobiidae, Grossuana Radoman, 1983 is a tiny spring-inhabitant genus which is mainly distributed in Balkan countries. We surveyed various freshwater ecosystems in the Çanakkale Province, northwestern Turkey, including Mount Kazdağı, and found eight of Grossuana which are new to science: G. azizsancari, G. kazdagiana, G. onderi, G. bayramicensis, G. kirkgozlerensis, G. canakkalensis, G. arslanarum, and G. tunceri. The species are described here. http://www.zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:2092E33B-A83E-4B20-826B-A70B0E11AB1D
期刊介绍:
Zoology in the Middle East is a journal which publishes original papers and review papers on ecology, zoogeography, animal biology, biodiversity, faunistics, systematics and morphology of the Middle East. It seeks to further the understanding of the Middle East as a zoogeographic unit and aims at improving the interchange of knowledge and ideas between specialists on different subjects and taxa.
