Non-native fishes in the Mediterranean from the Red Sea, by way of the Suez Canal

Sinan Mavruk; Dursun Avşar

The opening of the Suez Canal in 1869 caused a migration generally from the Red Sea to the Mediterranean, rarely the opposite direction, and 63 lessepsian fish species penetrated into the Mediterranean by way of this canal. These species usually spread northward and most of them can establish wide populations in this area, but some of them can not be successful with respect to establishment. Thus, it is clearly seen that there are a lot of factors influencing the success of species with respect to migration, spreading and establishment. So, the lessepsian migration has been formed by the effects of these factors. Lessepsian species also have the ability to adapt to the ecological conditions of their new environment. Therefore, the influential factors, their effectiveness and the observed changes in lessepsian species due to the effects of these factors have been discussed by considering fishes in this paper.

Population parameters of sprat (Sprattus sprattus phalericus RISSO) from the Turkish Black Sea coast

Dursun Avşar

Abstract Population parameters of the sprat ( Sprattus sprattus phalericus RISSO), collected from the Turkish Black Sea cost between 1990 and 1992 were investigated. The mean annual growth rates in length and weight were 25.1 mm and 2.3 g, respectively. Von Bertalanffy growth constants were calculated as W ∞ = 15.78 ( g ), L ∞ = 137.59 ( mm ), K = 0.42 (year −1 ) and t 0 = −1.09 (year). The growth parameters found in this study were compared with those from previous studies in the Black Sea and other areas. Total mortality rate and its components were Z = 1.64, M = 0.73 and F = 0.91. All mortality rates increased during winter-spring and decreased in autumn. A slight over-exploitation was found on the stock of the Turkish Black Sea sprat.

A stock differentiation study of the sprat (sprattus sprattus phalericus risso) off the southern coast of the black sea

Dursun Avşar

Abstract Stock differentiation studies of sprat ( Sprattus sprattus phalericus Risso) from the Black Sea coast of Turkey have been carried out morphometrically and meristically applying the generalised distance of Mahalanobis (GDM) and also physiologically using three-level nested ANOVA (TLNA). Fifteen morphometric measurements, together with nine meristic counts and fat concentration of wet tissues of sprat have been used in the analyses of GDM and TLNA, respectively. Insufficient differences in general phenotypic, genotypic ( P > 0.01) and physiological ( P > 0.05) characteristics implied the existence of a single unit stock. Samples collected in the same period showed greater similarity than those taken from the same areas in different periods.

İSKENDERUN KÖRFEZİ’NDE AKDENİZ KARİDESİ (PENAEUS KERATHURUS FORSKAL,1775)’NİN BÜYÜME PARAMETRELERİ ÖZ Bu çalışmada, İskenderun Körfezi’nde Kasım 2009-Aralık 2010 tarih aralığında aylık olarak dip trolü çekimlerinden elde edilen Akdeniz karidesi (Penaeus kerathurus)’nin büyüme parametreleri belirlenmiştir. İncelenen 120 örnek bireyden 41 adedi erkek ve 79 adedi dişi olup; erkek/dişi oranı yaklaşık 1/2 dir. Örneklerin total boyları 8.5-19.1cm, total ağırlıkları 4.4-58.41g değerleri arasında değişim göstermekte ve ortalama boy 13.97±2.19cm ile ağırlıkları 24.09±11.19g olarak belirlenmiştir. Boy-Ağırlık ilişkisi toplam eşeyde W=0.0108*TL (R=0.9042) olup; büyümede negatif allometrik büyüme özelliği gösterdiği saptanmıştır. Von Bertalanffy Büyüme sabitleri L∞=20.95cm, K=0.470yıl -1 ve t0=-0.5138yıl -1 olduğu belirlenmiştir. Toplam ölüm oranı (Z), doğal ölüm (M) ve balıkçılık ölüm oranı (F) ile stoktan yararlanma düzeyi (E) sırasıyla 2.45yıl, 1.09yıl, 1.36yıl ve 0.55yıl olarak saptanmıştır. Anahtar Kelimeler: Akdeniz Karidesi (Penaeus kerathurus), İskenderun Körfezi, Büyüme Parametreleri, Ölüm Oranları, Stoktan Yararlanma Oranı

Distribution dynamics of ichthyoplankton and recruitment hypotheses

Sinan Mavruk; Dursun Avşar

Denizel kemikli baliklarin cogunda yumurta ve larval asamalar planktonik ozellik gostermektedir. Bu formlar aktif hareket kabiliyeti kazanincaya dek balik planktonu anlamina gelen ihtiyoplankton kapsaminda degerlendirilmektedir. Kemikli baliklar genellikle cok sayida yumurta uretmekte; bu yumurtalardan onemli bir kismi, aclik, predasyon, anormal suruklenmeler ve sacilmalar gibi nedenlerle stoka katilim oncesinde olmektedir. Bu surecte, yasam oranlarindaki kucuk degisimler stoka katilimda onemli farkliliklar yaratabilmektedir. Diger taraftan, maksimum sayida yavruyu hayatta tutabilecek ideal habitatlarin varligi alan ve zamansal acidan degiskenlik sergilemekte; bu nedenle, yavrularin ideal cevresel kosullarla bulusturulmasi kritik onem arz etmektedir. Baliklar, bu eslestirmeyi saglamak amaciyla cesitli ureme stratejileri gelistirmislerdir. Bu derleme calismasinda, ihtiyoplanktonun alansal ve zamansal dagilimini etkileyen ic (yumurtlama stratejisi) ve dis (cevresel kosullar) faktorler teorik bir cercevede ele alinmis, planktonik evrelerin stoka katilim basarisindaki rollerini vurgulayan hipotezlerle birlikte tartisilmistir.
