Abstract

Ephemeroptera fauna of the streams in Yedigoller National Park were identified and the types and the characteristics of the streams in a protected area were detected by using indicator Ephemeroptera species. According to the results, degradations in the habitats of some part of the streams in the national park were determined. Furthermore, using Ephemeroptera species as indicator species to determine the borders of the national park was discussed.
