Pınarbaşı Deresi (Burdur, Türkiye)’nde Yabancı Balık Türü Hemichromis letourneuxi (Cichlidae)’nin İlk Kaydı

Öz

Anadolu’daki tatlısu habitatları çok sayıda istilacı yabancı balık türünün etkilerine maruz kalmıştır. Afrika mücevher balığı, Hemichromis letourneuxi Sauvage, 1880, Afrika'nın kuzey yarısı boyunca yaygın olarak bulunan bir tatlı su süs balığıdır. Bu çalışmada, H. letourneuxi türü Burdur İli Pınarbaşı Deresi'nden toplanmıştır. Bu bölgedeki yabancı H. letourneuxi bireylerinin girişi balık çiftliklerinden kaçmalar veya süs balık çiftlikleri ile akvaryumlardan kasıtlı olarak salınma şeklinde sonuçlanmış olabilir. Bu çalışma, H. letourneuxi'nin bölgedeki yerli balık faunası ve ekosistemi üzerindeki potansiyel ekolojik etkilerini tartışmaktadır.

First Record of Non-Indigenous Fish Hemichromis letourneuxi (Cichlidae) From Pınarbaşı Creek (Burdur, Turkey)

Öz

Freshwater habitats of Anatolia have been subject to the impacts of many invasive alien fish species. African jewelfish, Hemichromis letourneuxi Sauvage, 1880 is an ornamental freshwater fish which is widely distributed throughout northern half of Africa. In this study, H. letourneuxi was collected from Pınarbaşı Creek, Burdur Province, Turkey. Introduced specimens of H. letourneuxi in this area may be the result of escapes from fish farms, intentional releases from nearby ornamental fish farms or aquariums. This study discusses the potential ecological impacts of H. letourneuxi upon native fish fauna and ecosystem in the area.
