Abstract

Abstract This study was carried out to determine the ichthyofauna of Kemer reservoir and Akçay stream. As a result of examining the samples collected between December 2004 and June 2006, it was revealed that 15 fish species, belonging to 6 families, were found in the basin of Kemer reservoir and Akçay stream. Among these, Lepomis gibbosus, Silurus glanis, Oncorhynchus mykiss, Carassius gibelio and hybrid striped bass (Morone chrysops & Morone saxatilis) are alien species. Three species, Petroleuciscus smyrnaeus, Alburnoides bipunctatus, and Oncorhynchus mykiss were recorded for the first time from the Kemer reservoir and Akçay stream.

Keywords

Key words: Kemer reservoir Akçay stream ichthyofauna alien fish endemic.
