Current Status Freshwater Fishes of Nilüfer Stream (North-western Turkey)

Abstract

In this study, the freshwater fish diversity of the Nilufer stream basin is investigated. Nine families, 16 genera, and 19 fish species were recorded. The most representative families are Leuciscidae with five species (27.7 %), followed by Cyprinidae with five species (27.7 %). Overall, 17 sampling localities were studied among 2014–2015 to inventory fish species in the area. No fish was found at five stations representing the middle and downstream parts of the Nilufer stream. The most common species were detected, Barbus niluferensis, Squalius cii, Oxynoemacheilus angorae, and Oxynoemacheilus simavicus, respectively.
