“…Sharpbelly Hemiculter leucisculus (Basilewski, 1855) is a small cyprinid fish with an original distribution extending from China, Korea, Vietnam, to the far‐eastern region of Russia (Dai and Yang, ; Nelson, ) and is the dominant species in many of the water bodies in those regions (Gao et al., ; Tan et al., ). Apparently through the associated movement of aquaculture fish species, the sharpbelly has invaded many other countries including Iran (Holcik and Razavi, ; Patimar, ; Esmaeili and Gholamifard, ), Iraq (Coad and Hussain, ), Kazakhstan (Petr and Mitrofanov, ), Afghanistan (Coad, ), Uzbekistan (Borisova, ), Turkmenistan (Sal'nikov, ), and Russian Federation (Kolpakov et al., ). In Erhai Lake, the largest fault lake in the western Yunnan Plateau, H. leucisculus was first identified in 2004.…”

SummaryThe sharpbelly Hemiculter leucisculus, an invasive species, has expanded its range throughout much of Asia and into the Middle East. However, little is known of its adaptive changes regarding life history traits such as age, growth and mortality that could possibly explain its success as an invasive species. A detailed study of the invasive sharpbelly was conducted based on 4539 samples collected from July 2009 to June 2011 in Erhai Lake, China. Standard length ranged from 4.3-19.1 cm for females and 4.6-12.3 cm for males. Length-weight relationships for females and males were significantly different and described as W = 0.0076SL 3.2608 and W = 0.0084SL 3.1901 , respectively. Otoliths are ideal for age determination because of the single annulus formed each year. Based on marginal increment analysis, the total mean CV for age estimate between two readings was 3.55%. The von Bertalanffy growth curves computed by observed lengthat-age data were expressed as L t = 25.6 (1 À e À0.176 (t + 1.347) ) for females and L t = 16.4 (1 À e À0.354 (t + 0.819) ) for males. According to the age, growth and mortality data, there are three possible reasons for H. leucisculus attaining such dominance within a short time in Erhai Lake. First, because of the simple age structure of this species: 97.58% of males were 1-2 years old with a maximum age of only 3 years; 93.14% of females were 1-3 years old, with a maximum age of 6 years. Second, females grew larger than males at any age. Third, instantaneous mortality rates were much higher for males (4.22 year À1 ) than for females (1.17 year À1 ).

“…Many species have been widely introduced accidentally along with the species mentioned above [e.g., Alburnus hohenackeri, Pseudorasbora parva (Temminck &Schlegel in Siebold, 1842 andCarassius auratus (Linnaeus, 1758)]. Some species have been widely introduced and distributed to control malaria (Gambusia holbrooki Girard, 1859) and other ones have been released from aquariums [e.g., Amatitlania nigrofasciata (Günther, 1867), Xiphophorus hellerii Heckel, 1848 and Carassius auratus] (Esmaeili et al 2010a(Esmaeili et al , 2010b(Esmaeili et al , 2011b(Esmaeili et al , 2014.…”

“…The bitterling lives in central, eastern Europe and northern Asia [14]. Studies on this species are concentrated on behavioural aspect of reproduction, feeding, population genetic structure, systematics and morphology [15][16][17][18][19]. However, there are limited studies about bitterling population dinamics [20][21][22][23][24][25].…”

In this study, length-weight relationships (LWRs) and length-length relationships (LLRs) for Rhodeus amarus sampled from the Terme and Terice Streams were calculated in April-November 2016. A total of 117 fish specimens (from Terme = 57, from Terice= 60) were examined. Total, fork and standard length were measured (±0.1 cm) and weighted (±0.01 g) for all captured fish. Total length varies between 4.5 and 8.9 cm, weight varies between 0.730-9.940 g for all populations. Length-weight equations were calculated as W=0.005TL 3.479 and W=0.004TL 3.586 for Terme and Terice, respectively. According to analyses bitterling has positive allometric growths for two localities. Length-length relationships equations show that total, fork and standard length values are very strong between each other (P<0.001, coefficient of determination >0.95). /0000-0001-9785-9927 201 SAYGIN et al. Samsun bölgesi iç sularında yaşayan acı balık, Rhodeus amarus (Bloch, 1782)'un boy-ağırlık ve boy-boy ilişkileri Özet Bu çalışmada, Nisan-Kasım 2016 tarihleri arasında Terme ve Terice akarsularından örneklenen Rhodeus amarus türünün boy-ağırlık ilişkisi (LWRs) ve boy-boy ilişkileri (LLRs) hesaplanmıştır. Toplam 117 balık örneği (Terme'den=57, Terice'den=60) incelenmiştir. Tüm balıkların total, çatal ve standart boyları ölçülmüş (±0.1 cm) ve ağırlıkları tartılmıştır (±0.01 g). Tüm populasyonlar için total boylar 4.5 ve 8.9 cm arasında, ağırlıklar 0.730-0.940 g arasında değişmiştir. Boy-ağırlık ilişkisi denklemleri Terme ve Terice için sırası ile W=0.005TL 3.479 , W=0.004TL 3.586 olarak hesaplanmıştır. Analiz sonuçlarına göre her iki habitatta da acı balık pozitif allometrik büyüme özelliğine sahiptir. Boy-boy ilişki denklemleri total, çatal ve standart boylar arasında birbirleri ile çok güçlü ilişki olduğunu gösterir (P<0.001, belirtme katsayısı >0.95). Anahtar kelimeler: Rhodeus amarus, boy-ağırlık ilişkisi, boy-boy ilişkisi, balıkçılık, Samsun.
