The New Record Native and Non-Native Species for the Ichthyofauna of Elekçi Stream (Turkey)

Abstract

Aim In this study, fish species living in the Elekçi Stream, which poured from the borders of Fatsa District of Ordu Province to the Black Sea, were to determine as taxonomical. Material and Methods In the study, samples were taken from Bolaman and Elekçi Rivers using an electroshock device from six pre-determined stations between January 2017 and October 2018. Specimens were brought to the laboratory. The samples were then stored in formaldehyde solution (4%) for further examination and their metric and meristic characteristics were determined. Results and Discussion According to the results, two of the nine fish species were identified as native and one non-native new record species for Elekçi Stream for the first time as to the previous study performed in. These species are Alburnoides fasciatus, Ponticola turani, and Oncorhynchus mykiss belonged to three families (Leuciscidae, Gobiidae, and Salmonidae), respectively. However, other sampled species were found also to be Capoeta banarescui, Barbus tauricus, Rhodeus amarus (Cyprinidae), Alburnus derjugini, Squalius cephalus (Leuciscidae), similar to the results of the other study. The species previously identified as Neogobius fluviatilis in Elekçi Stream was designated as the homeotype of Ponticola turani for this stream.
