Web of Science Ciliated Protozoan Fauna in the Forestomach of Dromedary Camels (Camelus dromedarius) in Libya(2018.01.01) Gurelli, G; Mohamed, ARAWeb of Science Endosymbiotic Ciliated Protozoan Biota of Dromedary Camels and Domestic Cattle in Tunisia(2020.01.01) Gurelli, G; Daw, AFOEWeb of Science Fecal Ciliate Composition of Domestic Horses (Equus caballus Linnaeus, 1758) Living in Kyrgyzstan(2015.01.01) Gurelli, G; Canbulat, S; Aldayarov, NPublication First record of Diplodinium rangiferi Dogiel, 1925 (Ophryoscolecidae, Entodiniomorphida) from domestic cattle(2014-03-17) Gürelli G.; Gurelli, GDiplodinium rangiferi was observed in rumen contents from a single animal out of 25 cattle surveyed in the area of Kastamonu, Turkey. It constituted 2.7% of the total ciliate population and had a 4% frequency of appearance. The size and percentage occurrence of this species in the present study are compared to those previously reported for other animal hosts living in different geographical locations. This study reports for the first time in Turkey and the world the naturally occurring presence of D. rangiferi in cattle. © TÜBİTAK.Web of Science Web of Science Web of Science First report of natural infection of Xerolenta obvia (Pulmonata, Mollusca) by Dicrocoeliidae (Digenea) larval stages in Turkey(2018.01.01) Ismail, FMAK; Gurelli, GWeb of Science Hindgut Ciliate Composition of Thoroughbred Mares in Kentucky, USA, and Binary Fission in Polymorphella ampulla(2019.01.01) Gurelli, G; Lyons, ET; Kesbic, FIPublication Intestinal ciliate fauna of the Asian elephant from Gaziantep, Turkey and the description of Brevitentaculum antebum n. g., n. sp.(2016-10-01T00:00:00Z) Gürelli, Gözde; Gurelli, GThe aims of this investigation were to identify and quantify ciliates inhabiting the large intestine of Asian elephants living in Gaziantep Zoo, Turkey, and to describe a new suctorian genus and species. Species composition and distribution of intestinal ciliates voided in the feces of two Asian elephants were examined. Fifteen species of intestinal ciliates, representing 7 genera, were identified. One new suctorian genus and species, Brevitentaculum antebum n. g., n. sp., was described. This new species has two short truncated terminal projections, with two longitudinally lined bands located between the two projections, near the convex surface of the cell. Short clavate-like tentacles are in two fascicles near each base of terminal projections on the flattened surface of the body. Ciliate densities in the two fecal samples were 4.5×10mL and 10×10mL.Web of Science Web of Science Web of Science Intestinal Ciliates of Plains Zebra (Equus quagga Gmelin, 1788) in Turkey(2023.01.01) Gurelli, GPublication Intestinal Ciliates of Plains Zebra (Equus quagga Gmelin, 1788) in Turkey.(2023-02-08T00:00:00Z) Gürelli, Gözde; Gurelli, GAn investigation was carried out to identify the intestinal ciliated protozoa of the plains zebra known as Burchell's zebra (Equus quagga burchellii Gray, 1824) living in Sasalı National Park (İzmir, Turkey) and Gaziantep Zoo (Gaziantep, Turkey) and of the plains zebra known as Grant's zebra (Equus quagga boehmi Matschie, 1892) living in Darıca Faruk Yalçın Zoo (Darıca, Turkey). A total of 27 species and 1 morphotype belonging to 17 genera and 6 families were detected. Bundleia elongata was identified in all examined zebras, whereas Bundleia inflata, Blepharoconus benbrooki, Blepharocorys cardionucleata, Circodinium minimum, Cycloposthium bipalmatum, Ditoxum brevinucleatum, D. hamulus, and Arcosoma brevicorniger were identified only in one zebra. The average quantity of intestinal ciliates in the 9 zebras was 11.0 ± 17.0 × 104 cells mL-1. According to this study, the total number of ciliate species in the intestine of zebras increased to 51. This is the first time a report has been made on Paraisotricha colpoidea, Blepharoprosthium polytrichum, Bundleia elongata, B. triangularis, Paraisotrichopsis composita, Arcosoma brevicorniger, and A. dicorniger from zebra intestines. Moreover, A. brevicorniger was observed in binary fission for the first time.Web of Science Monacha samsunensis (Pfeiffer, 1868): another Anatolian species introduced to Western Europe, where it is known as Monacha atacis Gittenberger & de Winter, 1985 (Gastropoda: Eupulmonata: Hygromiidae)(2022.01.01) Pienkowska, JR; Manganelli, G; Prockow, M; Gurelli, G; Kosicka, E; Giusti, F; Lesicki, AWeb of Science Natural infection of the land snails Xerolenta obvia, Zebrina detrita, and Monacha samsunensis by Brachylaima sp metacercariae in Kastamonu, Turkey(2018.01.01) Ismail, FMAK; Gurelli, GWeb of Science Publication New Entodiniomorphid Ciliates, Buetschlia minuta n. sp., B. cirrata n. sp.,Charonina elephanti n. sp., from Asian Elephants of Turkey.(2019-01-17T00:00:00Z) GÜrellİ, GÖzde; Gurelli, GThree new entodiniomorphid species, Buetschlia minuta n. sp., Buetschlia cirrata n. sp., and Charonina elephanti n. sp., were described from the hindgut of Asian elephants (Elephas maximus) from Gaziantep, Turkey. B. minuta n. sp. has an ovoid body shape with a truncated anterior end and a rounded posterior end, an adoral ciliary zone surrounding the cytostome, somatic ciliary rows in the anterior two thirds of the body, an ovoid macronucleus without a constant position, and a concretion vacuole in the anterior one third of the body. B. cirrata n. sp. has an ovoid body shape with the anterior end truncated and the posterior end rounded, an adoral ciliary zone surrounding the cytostome, unevenly distributed somatic cilia, an ovoid macronucleus without a constant position, and a concretion vacuole in the anterior one third of the body. C. elephanti n. sp. has an ovoid body shape with both ends rounded, an ovoid macronucleus without a constant position, two buccal ciliary zones, an adoral ciliary zone, a vestibular ciliary zone, three somatic ciliary zones, a dorsal ciliary zone, two posterior ciliary zones, dorsal and ventral, and a vestibulum with a Y-shaped infraciliature.Web of Science Publication Rumen ciliate biota of water buffalo (Bubalus Bubalis Linnaeus, 1758) in Kastamonu, Turkey(2016-01-01) Gürelli G.; Gurelli, GSpecies composition and distribution of rumen ciliates were investigated in the rumen contents of six Anatolian water buffaloes living in Kastamonu, Turkey. Thirty-seven species and 19 morphotypes belonging to 11 genera were identified, all being first reports of rumen ciliates from Anatolian water buffaloes. The mean number of ciliates was 70.5 ± 62.3 × 104 cells in 1 mL of rumen contents, while the average number of ciliate species per host was 17.5 ± 3.6. Dasytricha ruminantium, Entodinium simulans, and En. longinucleatum were found to be the dominant species occurring in all animals. Entodinium ellipsoideum, Eudiplodinium dilobum, and Ostracodinium munham were isolated from buffaloes for the first time. No previously unknown species were observed.
