The investigation was carried out inner and shallower part of Marmaris Bayin 2011 April to May. Horizontal hauls were operated with WP-2 type plankton net with 200 mikron mesh size at speed of 2.5 knots in 10 minute period of time. Gobiidae larvae were have been comprised of the highest percentages in all larvae, in the winter (84%), spring (64%) and summer (54 %). </span> </span> <span style="line-height:150%;font-size:14px;"> <i>Pomatoschistus spp. </i>, <i>Gobius niger </i> </span> <span style="line-height:150%;"> <span style="font-size:14px;">Linneaus,1758 </span> <span style="font-size:14px;">, <i>Gobius paganellus </i> </span> <span style="font-size:14px;">Linneaus,1758 </span> <span style="font-size:14px;">, <i>Pomatoschistus minutus </i> </span> <span style="font-size:14px;">(Pallas,1770) </span> <span style="font-size:14px;">, <i>Pomatoschistus microps </i> </span> </span> <span style="line-height:150%;font-size:14px;">(KrØyer, 1938) </span> <span lang="en-us" style="line-height:150%;" xml:lang="en-us"> <span style="font-size:14px;">species larvae were identified maximum 38 m waters of </span> <span style="font-size:14px;">  </span> <span style="font-size:14px;">the Bay.

As a demersal Gobiidae eggs laid to the sea bottom could be damaged due to the boat anchor’s or accumulated petrol or petrol derivatives material. For that reason their larval population have been found lower than expected. </span> <font face="Times New Roman, serif"> <span style="font-size:12pt;"> </span> </font> </span> </p> <p> </p>}, number={2}, publisher={Su Ürünleri Merkez Araştırma Enstitüsü}
