Özet
This research was carried out between May and October 2012 at three different stations in the vicinity of Tunca River in the province of Edirne. In the study, walnut, mulberry and elm leaf types gathered from the surrounding trees and artificial boxwood and leaf leaves made of dry plane leaf which was spilled in the previous year were prepared. These packages were aimed for determining which leaf packs, stations and months in which Chironomidae larvae preferred and colony in the following months, how the leaf packs might have preferred them, and species diversity at stations in the following months. The largest colonization was in artificial boxwood leaf packaging; the least colonization was found in the mulberry leaves. This suggested that leaf packets are used for accommodation rather than feeding. Also the number of larvae was found high in August. Fifty different species of Chironomid larvae were found in the river.
