Abstract

In the current study, for the first time, Oxynoemacheilus angorae samples were caught from Perşembe Plateau Meandering Streams in the Ordu-Turkey (Middle Black Sea Region). In the field studies, fifteen O. angorae individuals were sampled using electrofishing gear. After the captured samples were photographed, they were placed in fish transfer containers and transferred to the laboratory. Some metric numbers and meristic characteristics of the samples brought to the laboratory were recorded. The mean value of body weight of fish samples was determined as 2.39±0.576 g. The mean values of standard length, fork length and total length of the samples were determined as 5.48±0.49 cm, 6.23±0.54 cm and 6.56±0.59 cm, respectively. The result of this study, new fish species was added to freshwater fish fauna of Ordu and also provided a new data for the distribution areas O. angorae in Turkey.

Oxynoemacheilus angorae (Steindachner, 1897) Türünün Perşembe Yaylası Menderesleri Ordu-Türkiye’den İlk Kaydı

Abstract

Bu çalışmada, Oxynoemacheilus angorae türü Perşembe Yaylası Menderesleri Ordu-Türkiye (Orta Karadeniz Bölgesi)’den ilk kez kaydedilmiştir. Arazi çalışmalarında, on beş adet O. angorae bireyi elektroşoker yardımıyla yakalanmıştır. Yakalanan örnekler fotoğraflandıktan sonra balık transfer kaplarına konularak laboratuvara getirilmiştir. Laboratuvara getirilen örneklerin bazı metrik sayıları ve meristik karakterleri ölçülmüştür. Balık örneklerin ortalama vücut ağırlığı 2,39±0,57 g olarak belirlenmiştir. O. angorae'nin ortalama standart boy, çatal boy ve total boy uzunlukları sırasıyla 5,48 ±0,49 cm, 6,23±0,54 cm ve 6,56±0,59 cm olarak belirlenmiştir. Bu çalışmayla Ordu ilinin tatlı su balık faunasına yeni bir tür eklenmiş ve O. angorae türünün Türkiye’deki yayılış alanı içinde yeni bir veri sağlanmıştır.
