Özet
Our country connects the Europe and Asia to each other. Overall, 3% (23,764 km(2)) of the land is located in Europe known as Eastern Thrace. The rest (756,816 km(2), 97%) is located in Asia named Anatolia. Because of the presence of the water barrier consisting of the Marmara Sea, Bosphorus and Dardanelles, the flora and fauna of the Asian and European part of Turkey could be somewhat different. So, the aim of this study is to determine the earthworm composition of the Asian and European parts of Turkey.
