AB  - This study focuses on the relationships between otolith measurements andtotal length; otolith shape indices and the total length; among otolithmeasurements for three Atherina boyeri populations (Lake Eğirdir, Lake Iznik,and Hirfanlı Dam Lake) to determine regional variations of these populations inTurkey. 356 specimens with 41.0 - 103.6 mm total length of three A. boyeripopulations were examined and their otoliths were extracted and measured.Otolith width is the strongest indicator for the three A. boyeri populationsalthough the otolith length, width, and weight are good indicators for the fishlength in the different populations. The linear relationship was determinedbetween A. boyeri total length and sagittal otolith sizes in the threepopulations. However, the best model for the relationships among otolith sizescan be change depends on populations differentiation. Exponential model is thebest model for Lake Eğirdir population while the linear model is the best modelfor Lake Iznik and Hirfanlı Dam Lake populations.

N2  - Bu çalışmada Türkiye’deki Atherina boyeri’nin üç popülasyonundaki(Eğirdir Gölü, İznik Gölü ve Hirfanlı Baraj Gölü) balıkların total boy-otolit ölçümleri;total boy-otolit indisleri ve otolit ölçümlerinin kendi aralarındaki ilişkileritespit ederek popülasyonlar arasındaki farklılıkları belirlemeyeodaklanılmıştır. Farklı üç bölgeden toplam 356 adet 41.0-103.6 mm total boyundaörnekler yakalanmış ve bu örneklerin sagittal otolitleri çıkarılıp ölçümleriyapılmıştır. Otolit boyu, genişliği ve ağırlığı farklı popülasyonlardakibalıkların boyu için iyi bir gösterge iken otolit genişliği bu üç popülasyoniçin en kuvvetli göstergedir. Bu üç popülasyondaki A. boyeri’nin total boyuylaotolit boyutları arasında doğrusal bir ilişki belirlendi. Ancak bu otolitboyutları arasındaki en iyi ilişki modeli popülasyon farklılıklarına göredeğişebilmektedir. Üssel model Eğirdir Gölü popülasyonu için en iyi model ikendoğrusal model İznik ve Hirfanlı Gölleri popülasyonları için en iyi modelolarak belirlenmiştir.
