A Study On The Bony Fishes Caught In The South Of The Sea Of Marmara By Bottom Trawling And Their Morphologies, Lütfi̇ye Soyal Eryilmaz

Turkish Journal of Zoology

A total of 572 specimens of bony fish were obtained as a result of bottom trawling at 47 stations by R/V Arar of the University of Istanbul at the south of the Sea of Marmara, in 1992 and 1995. Upon analysis of these specimens, it was revealed that 49 bony fish species, including 5 subspecies, belonging to 30 families were found, and their diagnostic characteristics, the place and the depth where they were caught are given. The presence of Alosa pontica (Eichwald, 1838), known from the Black Sea, was determined in the Sea of Marmara in this study. The majority …

Marsh Frogs, Rana Ridibunda In Lake Akören -26 August National Park (Afyon): A Preliminary Study Of Population Size And A Taxonomical Evaluation, Uğur Kaya, Uğur C. Eri̇şmi̇ş

Turkish Journal of Zoology

The population size of marsh frogs, Rana ridibunda was estimated using the mark-recapture method in Lake Akören Lake. The triple catch method was used to calculate survival and gains in addition to population size. The population sizes were estimated to be 3016 on the second day, and 3532 on the third day. On the basis of morphological analyses, we concluded that Lake Akören is inhabited by Rana ridibunda ridibunda.
