Abstract

Some biological aspects of silverstripe blaasop from the Turkish coast were studied in terms of morphometry age and growth. Samples were collected between December 2011 and May 2013, comprising of 100 inviduals of Lagocephalus sceleratus (Gmelin,1789) from Antalya Bay. The age of each specimen was estimated based on vertebra analysis, and the age of L. sceleratus ranged between one and five years. Length weight relationships were calculated as W= 0.0102TL3.0118 and Von Bertalanffy growth function Lt=79.48 (1-e-0.18537(t+0.61791)). The results were discussed with data available from different studies.

Türkiye'nin Akdeniz Kıyılarından Gümüş Bantlı Balon Balığı Lagocephalus sceleratus (Gmelin, 1789)'un Büyüme Parametreleri

Abstract

Türkiye kıyılarından gümüş bantlı balon balıklarının bazı biyolojik yönleri, yaşı ve büyümesi açısından incelenmiştir. Aralık 2011-Mayıs 2013 tarihleri arasında Antalya Körfezi'nden Lagocephalus sceleratus (Gmelin, 1789) türüne ait toplamda 100 birey toplanmıştır. Her bir bireyin yaşı, omurga analizine dayanarak okunmuştur ve bu çalışmada L. sceleratus'un yaş aralığı I-V yıl olarak belirlenmiştir. Boy-ağırlık ilişkisi W = 0.0102TL3.0118 ve Von Bertalanffy büyüme fonksiyonu Lt = 79.48 (1-e (-0.18537 (t + 0.61791)) olarak hesaplanmıştır ve sonuçlar farklı çalışmalardan elde edilen verilerle karşılaştırılmıştır.
