Abstract

Rotifera species collected from a pool (Celtikli village, Bismil, Diyarbakir) 22 km from Bismil to Batman were surveyed taxonomically. Eighteen rotifer species were identified. Two of these species. Sinantherina semibullata (Thorpe, 1889) and Cephalodella megalocephala (Glasscott), 1893, as well as the genus Sinantherina Bory de St. Vincent. 1826, are new records for the Turkish rotifer fauna.
