Mastacembelus simack (Banks & Solander, 1794) Türünün Farklı Lokasyonlardaki (Dicle ve Murat nehirleri) Boy-Ağırlık İlişkisi ve Kondisyon Faktörü

Abstract

Bu çalışmada, 2014-2016 yılları arasında Dicle Nehri ve Murat Nehri havzalarından yakalanan Mezopotamya dikenli yılan balığı Mastacembelus simack'in (Banks & Solander, 1794) boy-ağırlık ilişkisi (LWR) ve kondisyon faktörü (CF) araştırılmıştır. İncelenen balıkların toplam boy ve ağırlıkları Dicle Havza’sında 24.00 ve 67.40 cm ile 31.70 ve 585.30 gr arasında, Murat Havzası’nda 27.20 ve 60.50 cm ile 38.20 ve 385.00 g arasında değişmektedir. Her iki havzadaki toplamda tüm örnekler için negatif allometrik büyüme (b<3) belirlenirken, Murat Nehri'nde boyu 27.20 ile 31.80 cm (b=3,54), Dicle Havzasında 41,20 ile 52,80 cm (b=3,27) ve 53,70 ile 67,40 cm (b=4.77) arasında olan bireylerde pozitif allometrik büyüme belirlenmiştir. Boy-ağırlık ilişkisi Dicle Havzası’nda W=0.005L2.73 (R2=0.94) ve Murat Nehri'nde W=0.005L2.75 (R2=0.97) olarak bulunmuştur. Dicle ve Murat nehri havzalarındaki balıklar, ortalama aynı CF değerlerine sahiptirler (CF=19).

Length-Weight Relationship and Condition Factor of the Mastacembelus simack (Bank & Solander, 1794) at Different Locations on the (Tigris and Murat Rivers) Türkiye

Abstract

In this study, the length-weight relationship (LWR) and condition factor (CF) of Mesopotamian spiny eel Mastacembelus simack (Banks & Solander, 1794) caught from the Tigris River and Murat River basins between 2014 and 2016 were investigated. While the length of the fishes ranged between 24.00 and 67.40 cm for Tigris basin and 27.20 and 60.50 cm Murat basin, the weights changed between 31.70 and 585.30 g for Tigris basin and 38.20 and 385.00 g for Murat basin. It was determined positive allometric growth in individuals with a length of between 27.20 and 31.80 cm (b=3.54) in Murat Basin, 41.20 and 52.80 cm (b=3.27), and 53.70 and 67.40 cm (b=4.77) in Tigris Basin, while negative allometric growth (b<3) was determined in total all samples of both basins. The length-weight relationship was found as W=0.005L2.73 (R2=0.94) for Tigris and W=0.005L2.75 (R2=0.97) for Murat rivers. Average CF has the same value (CF=19) for Tigris and Murat rivers basin fish.
