“…The observed mortality of C. linguatula was 100.0% for winter and summer seasons. In the northern Aegean, the length at maturity was at 15.0 cm TL for females and 14.0 cm TL for males (Cengiz, İşmen, & Özekinci, ). Kınacigil et al.…”

Mortality of non-target flatfishes escaping from demersal trawl codends

2016

Summary Mortality of non‐target flatfishes that had escaped from various sizes (40, 44 and 50 mm) of codend meshes was determined by capturing and holding the escapees in cages for 7 days. Although three flatfish species were studied, sufficient data for detailed analyses were obtained only for Buglossidium luteum (Risso, 1810) (solenette). Trawl hauls (48 in total) with 15 min towing durations were conducted in the summer and winter seasons of 2011 and 2012. A tailored bottom trawl with 800 meshes around the mouth was used with covers to capture fish. Covers were used as an observation cage, and were fixed to the sea bottom at depths of 3.0–8.2 m. The monitoring period was 7 days. It was estimated that average escape mortality of B. luteum for all test cages (96.5%) in summer was significantly higher (p < .01) than that in winter (56.5%). Mesh size and shape was not a significant factor (p > .01), with the exception of the 2011 winter; however, the mortality rate was inversely related to fish length in most cases (p < .01). High mortalities (~100%) were observed for Arnoglossus laterna (Walbaum, 1792) (Mediterranean scaldfish) and Citharus linguatula (Linnaeus, 1758) (spotted flounder) in all hauls in both summer and winter.

“…The shelf extends at a water depth of 90-120 m. The length of the bay is about 61 km and the width at the opening to the Aegean Sea is about 36 km (Eronat and Sayin, 2014). As Bay of Saros had been closed to bottom trawl fishing since 2000 (Cengiz et al, 2014;2015) and no industrial activity was prevalent in the area (Sari and Çağatay, 2001), the bay can be considered as a pristine environment (Cengiz et al, 2013).…”

The present study has been conducted to find out new findings on maximum length and weight values of Umbrina cirrosa in the Bay of Saros (Northern Aegean Sea, Turkey). On September, 11, 2016, a single specimen of Umbrina cirrosa with 68.8 cm total length and 2600.00 g total weight was caught by handline at a depth of 20 m. The provable size is the second largest length ever reported in the all seas of the world

“…Samples of Dentex maroccanus were collected monthly between September 2006 and September 2008 at depths ranging from 20 m to 300 m in the Saros Bay, Aegean Sea, using a commercial bottom trawl net (Cengiz et al 2014). The final data set comprised 184 hauls and a total of 507 specimens.…”

Gul G., Ismen A., Arslan M. 2014. Age, growth, and reproduction of Dentex maroccanus (Actinopterygii:Perciformes: Sparidae) in the Saros Bay (north Aegean Sea). Acta Ichthyol. Piscat. 44 (4): 295-300.Background. The Morocco dentex, Dentex maroccanus Valenciennes, 1830, is a sparid species, which has economical value and its population is expanding in a 20-500 m depth range throughout the Mediterranean. Worldwide, there is a lack of information about the biology (age, growth, reproductive season, first maturity length) of this species. This study provides the first data on population parameters of D. maroccanus in the Aegean Sea. Conclusion.Results reported in this work will contribute to the knowledge on the biology of D. maroccanus in the north Aegean Sea and also to a better understanding of its role in the marine ecosystem.
