Abstract

This study was carried out between September 2006 - September 2008 in Saros Bay (Northern Aegean Sea, Turkey). The fish samples were collected using a commercial bottom trawl net with 44 mm codend mesh size at depths ranging from 0 to 500 m The spawning period of four-spotted megrim (Lepidorhombus boscii Risso, 1810) occurred between February and May. First sexual maturity length was 14.9 cm for females and 15.3 cm for males. Absolute fecundity - total length, absolute fecundity - total weight and absolute fecundity - age relationships were estimated as F= 1.487×TL3.22, F= 264.39×W + 14.103 and F= 12.207×A - 11.279, respectively. This study includes first data on some reproductive characteristics of four-spotted megrim for Turkish waters

Abstract

Bu çalışma Eylül 2006 - Eylül 2008 tarihleri arasında Saros Körfezi (Kuzey Ege Denizi, Türkiye)’nde gerçekleştirilmiştir. Balık örnekleri 0 - 500 m arası derinliklerde ayda bir defa torba ağ gözü açıklığı 44 mm olan ticari dip trolü ağı kullanılarak toplanmıştır. Benekli pisi balığının (Lepidorhombus boscii Risso, 1810) üreme döneminin Şubat-Mayıs ayları arasında olduğu belirlenmiştir. İlk üreme boyu dişi bireyler için 14.9 cm, erkek bireyler için ise 15.3 cm olarak saptanmıştır. Türün mutlak yumurta verimliliği - toplam boy, mutlak yumurta verimliliği - toplam ağırlık ve mutlak yumurta verimliliği - yaş arasındaki ilişkiler sırasıyla F= 1.487×TL3.22, F= 264.39×TW + 14.103 ve F= 12.207×A -11.279 olarak tespit edilmiştir. Bu çalışma benekli pisi balığının Türkiye sularında bazı üreme özelliklerine ilişkin ilk verileri içermektedir.
