boyeri </i> Risso, 1810 was recorded for the first time from Büyükçekmece
Reservoir (İstanbul, Turkey) in 1982. However, recent studies on the fish fauna
of Büyükçekmece Reservoir indicated that <i>A.
boyeri </i> did not exist in the reservoir. In the present study, which was
originally planned for determining biological features of perch, <i>Perca fluvi­atilis </i>Linnaeus, 1758 in the reservoir,
existence of <i>A. boyeri </i> was determined
in the stomach contents of two <i>P.
fluviatilis </i> individuals captured in
October and No­vember 2009. Possible reasons for reappearance of the species
are discussed.  </span> </p> <p> </p>}, number={4}, publisher={Özkan ÖZDEN}
