“…23 There are 13 species of the family belonging to 28 genera distributed in the seas of Türkiye. 24 Oblada melanurus (Linnaeus, 1758) is a member of the Sparidae family, distributed from Gibraltar to Angola, the Mediterranean Sea, the Gulf of Biscay, Madeira, Cape Verde, and the Canary Islands. The species is widespread in the Mediterranean and East Atlantic and is distributed in coastal waters on rocky grounds and Posidonia beds up to 30 meters in Figure 1.…”

The present study presents length-weight, length-length, length-girth relationships, and biometry of male and female specimens of saddled seabream, Oblada melanurus(Linnaeus, 1758), in the Turkish Aegean Sea. The length-length and length-weight relationships were calculated by measuring 516 individuals. The total length values of all male and female O. melanurus specimens were in the range of 17.2-30.7 and 18.5-30.0 cm, respectively, and the mean values were 21.84±2.04 and 22.44±2.12 cm, respectively. The length-weight relationships were W=0.0110TL3.057 for males, W=0.0114TL3.043 for females, and W=0.0089TL3.122 for all the specimens. The results denoted a high correlation (r²=0.966; p<0.001) in the length-length relationships. Furthermore, 287 individuals (105 females and 182 males) were examined for length-girth relationships and biometric analyses. Ten morphometric characters were analyzed to analyze biometry. In conclusion, no statistically significant differences were determined in morphology between the sexes (p<0.05).

“…The Labridae family, is known for its extensive representation in the Atlanto-Mediterranean ichthyofauna, inhabits diverse marine environments across the globe, encompassing both tropical and temperate waters (Helfman et al, 2009). The Labridae family, represented by 21 species in Turkish territorial waters, and from them only eight ones spread on the Black Sea coasts (Bilecenoğlu et al, 2014;Karataş et al, 2021).

This study records a remarkable finding in the Black Sea, where Symphodus tinca, a rare wrasse species. On June 9, 2023, during a biodiversity survey near Fener Island (Fatsa, Ordu, Türkiye), a male S. tinca was captured at a depth of 12 meters, measuring 316.0 mm in length and weighing 430.43 g. This specimen represents the largest ever recorded in the Black Sea. The factors behind this extraordinary finding, likely a result of species-specific and site-specific conditions such as low competition, favorable environmental factors, suitable habitats, and low fishing pressure, are complex and multifaceted. This finding not only contributes crucial data to the understanding of S. tinca growth patterns but also holds significance for its conservation, ecosystem management, and scientific research.

“…There are 173 mammal species belonging to 36 families in Turkey, which is very rich in terms of biological diversity (Karataş et al, 2021) and some of these species are categorized as endangered or below, according to the International Union for Conservation of Nature. Gazelles are placed in the family Bovidae, subfamily Antilopinae (antelopes).…”

“…Gazelles are placed in the family Bovidae, subfamily Antilopinae (antelopes). Sand gazelle (Gazella marica) and Mountain Gazelle (Gazella gazella), which are among the gazelle species in Turkey, are classified as vulnerable and endangered species, respectively (İlaslan, 2019;Karataş et al, 2021). Mountain Gazelle (Gazella gazella), which lives in hilly areas and steep slopes with arid and semi-arid climate, is now widespread in the Golan Heights in Israel and Palestine, Central Israel, Jordan Valley and the northern Negev.…”

The current study aimed to detect parasites in Hatay Mountain Gazelles (Gazella gazella), which are categorized as endangered according to the International Union for Conservation of Nature. The present study was conducted in Hatay Mountain Gazelle Wildlife Development Area, where 40 gazelles inhabited (30 ♀, 10 ♂), 15 of which were over three years old as well-considered adults. Fecal samples were taken from 60 fecal foci immediately after the defecation of the gazelles. Each of the fecal samples was analysed with Benedek sedimentation, Fülleborn flotation and Bearman-Wetzel methods and examined under a light microscope. In addition, Ixodid ticks were collected from an injured gazelle which was brought to Hatay Mustafa Kemal University, Wildlife Rescue and Rehabilitation Center, then were identified under the stereomicroscope. Nematodirus spp. (5/60, 8%), Marshallagia spp. (4/60, 7%), Trichostrongylus spp. (3/60, 5%) eggs, Dictiyocaulus filaria larvae (3/60, 5%) and Eimeria spp. oocysts (9/60, 15%) were determined based on the microscopic examination. Ixodid tick samples were identified as Rhipicephalus turanicus (2 ♀, 3 ♂). Thus this is the first report of the existence of parasites in Hatay Mountain Gazelles in Turkey. It is thought that skin and fecal examinations should be performed to prevent parasitic diseases in gazelles.
