Çıplak, B. (2004). Systematics, phylogeny and biogeography of Anterastes (Orthoptera, Tettigoniidae, Tettigoniinae): evolution within a refugium. —Zoologica Scripta, 33, 19–44. The genus Anterastes, distributed in southeastern Europe and the western part of Anatolia, is revised based on previous materials and numerous…

Abstract Aim Chorthippus parallelus is one of the classic model systems for studying genetic structure and phylogeography in the Western Palaearctic. Here, we investigate the regional genetic differentiation of C. parallelus and evaluate the historical and evolutionary processes responsible for such genetic structurin…

In this paper, we test the hypothesis that male sand crickets, Gryllus firmus, experience a trade-off between flight capability and reproductive potential expressed as reduced testis weight in flight-capable morphs. We used a half-sib design with 130 sires, three dams per sire and an average of 5.66 males per dam fami…

Due to active tectonic evolution of the Aegean Area during Miocene and Pleistocene, the Balkans and Anatolia have repeatedly connected and disconnected causing isolation and secondary contact of populations along the present Dardanelles – Sea of Marmara – Bosphorus waterway. This has led to an outstandingly rich fauna…

Abstract High mountain ranges within and around A natolia have played an important role in the biogeography of mountainous organisms, which are threatened by climate change. Using the P sorodonotus caucasicus species group ( PCG ), whose range is the C aucasus, A natolia and the B alkans, as a model group, this study…

The peripatric or budding species model has remained theoretical until recently. The habitat preference and range pattern of the mountainous Psorodonotus venosus species group, distributed in Anatolia and Caucasus, offered potential to test the predictions of the model. The study aimed to confirm the parameters and to…

Active tectonic history of the Eastern Mediterranean, especially around Aegean area, through the Neogene led to interesting radiation patterns of animal lineages, allowing intriguing biogeographical hypotheses to be tested. Descendants of the ancestral stock in the Miocene Aegean Plate presently occur in the Anatolia,…

The bush cricket genus Eupholidoptera, distributed across the northern Mediterranean Basin from Southern France to Israel, is reviewed. An illustrated key for males is presented. Two new species are described: Eupholidoptera helina Çiplak sp. n. and Eupholidoptera kykladica Heller & Fer Willemse & Luc Willemse sp. n..…

We examined size clines for various external body structures in two grasshopper species (Chorthippus vagans and Oedipoda miniata) and one katydid species (Poecilimon birandi), along an altitudinal gradient ranging from sea level to 1,980 m in southwest Anatolia (Turkey). In O. miniata and P. birandi all measured struc…
