Fekondite 13516-149497 arasında, ortalama 93520±11012.77 (n:16) olarak bulunmuştur. Çatal boy-fekondite arasındaki ilişki F= 2748*L1.0842 (R2=0.0531), ağırlık-fekondite arasındaki ilişki F= 136W + 78155 (R2=0.016) şeklinde tespit edilmiş olup çatal boy-fekondite ve ağırlık-fekondite arasında bir ilişki gözlenmemiştir. Toplam 1055 adet yumurtanın çapları 0.075 mm ile 1.45 mm arasında, ortalama 0.346 mm ±0.006 olarak saptanmıştır. Bu çalışmada ortaya konan yumurta çapı değerlerinin aylık değişimleri bu türün uzun bir üreme dönemine sahip olduğunu ve özellikle Mart-Ekim ayları arasında yumurta bıraktıklarını desteklemektedir. Aylara göre yumurta çaplarının boy-frekans dağılımları türün asenkronize olarak parti parti yumurtladığını (multiple spawner) ortaya koymaktadır. Ancak daha detaylı histolojik çalışmalarla bunun desteklenmesi önerilebilir</p></abstract>

                            <p>In this work, fecundity and oocyte diameter of the lizardfish, Synodus saurus was determined in Antalya Bay on the eastern Mediterranean coast of Turkey. Fecundity varied from 13516-149497 and the mean fecundity was determined as 93520±11012.77 (n: 16). Fecundity-lenght relationship was F= 2748*L1.0842 (R2=0.0531); fecundityweight relationship was F= 136W + 78155 (R2=0.016). There were no relationships between these values. A total of 1055 oocyte diameters ranged from 0,075 to 1.45 mm and the mean size was 0.346 mm ±0.006. In the present study, the evolution of monthly oocyte diameter values supports that this species has a long reproduction period (specially between March-October). The distribution of monthly oocyte diameter lenght-frequency exposes that S. saurus is multiple spawner as asynchronize. But it may be suggested that these results are researched detailed in histologists studies.</p></trans-abstract>
