Abstract

Salmonids are one of the species that is widely distributed in the world and have strong cultivation characteristics. Therefore, many studies have been conducted on the bioecological characteristics, culture characteristics, meat yield and quality of salmonid species. However, there are very few reports on the biggest known sizes of these species. This study was prepared to introduce the largest Black Sea salmon (Salmo labrax PALLAS, 1814) caught in the Black Sea Region of Turkey. In addition, this study is the first to introduce the largest Black Sea salmon in our country.
