Abstract

Bu çalışmada Susurluk Havzası'nda bulunan sulak alanların (Uluabat ve Manyas Gölleri hariç) tıbbi sülükler açısından popülasyon durumlarının tespiti ve mevcut alanların stok durumları araştırılmıştır. 2022 ve 2023 yıllarında Mart ve Ekim ayları arasında Kütahya'da 26, Bursa'da 49 ve Balıkesir'de 33 sulak alan olmak üzere toplam 108 alanda çalışmalar yürütülmüştür. Bursa'da Keles Epçeler; Balıkesir İvrindi Çelimler ve Balıkesir Dursunbey Aşağımusalar bölgelerinde yer alan sulak alanlarda tıbbi sülük popülasyon ve stok çalışmaları gerçekleştirilmiştir. Çalışma yapılan alanlardan toplam 378 adet tıbbi sülükte örneklenmiştir (0,02-5,19 g ağırlık ve 10,48-153,92 mm). Sulak alanlardan elde edilen tıbbi sülük popülasyon durumu ve stok miktarları ile habitatları incelendiğinde gerek av baskısı gerekse habitat değişimi ve kaybı sonucu tıbbi sülüklerde azalma olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Bu durum son yıllarda artan tıbbi sülük talebine karşı yetiştiricilik sistemlerinin artırılması ve doğa üzerindeki baskının azaltılması gerektiğini göstermiştir.

The Presence and Population Status of Medicinal Leeches in the Some Wetlands in the Susurluk Basin

Abstract

In this study, the population status of the wetlands in the Susurluk Basin
(except Uluabat and Manyas Lakes) in terms of medicinal leeches and the stock status of the existing areas were investigated. Between March and October 2022 and 2023, studies were carried out in a total of 108 areas, including 26 wetlands in Kütahya, 49 wetlands in Bursa and 33 wetlands in Balıkesir. Medicinal leech population and stock studies were carried out in the wetlands located in Keles Epçeler in Bursa, Balıkesir İvrindi Çelimler and Balıkesir Dursunbey Aşağımusalar regions. A total of 378 medicinal leeches (0.02-5.19 g weight and 10.48-153.92 mm) were sampled from the study areas. The catchable amount of medicinal leeches was determined as 4.956 g for Epçeler, 218 g for Çelimler and 44 g for Aşağımusalar. When the population status and stock amounts of medicinal leeches obtained from wetlands and their habitats were analysed, it was determined that there was a decrease in medicinal leeches as a result of hunting pressure and habitat change and loss. This situation has shown that breeding systems should be increased and the pressure on nature should be reduced against the increasing demand for medicinal leeches in recent years.
