A specimen of Champsodon vorax Günther, 1867, of 113 mm SL, was caught on 6 September 2014 with a bottom trawl from the entrance of the Bay of Izmir, north-eastern Aegean Sea at a depth of 65 m. The presently reported study constitutes the first record for the Aegean Sea but also the fourth record for the Mediterranean Sea. The specimen described in this paper is the largest individual reported to...
Major synoptic systems bring desert dust from Arabia and the Sahara to Anatolia, Turkey. A study of particulate matter (PM) associated metal content such as As, Al, Cr, Cd, Co, Cu, Fe, Mn, Mo, Ni, Pb, Sb, Se, Sn, and Zn, etc., has been carried out for Diyarbakir, SE Anatolia, Turkey. Results show that the PM₁₀ levels during a dust storm were much higher than in a non-dust-storm period and that four...
Background. Poor selectivity of trawl cod-ends has been a major problem of the modern-day fisheries, contributing to destruction of non-target organisms. It is expected that increased trawl selectivity can reduce bycatch and discards. This would only be true if significant numbers of the escaping fishes survive. The chances of survival of many species after escaping the trawl cod-end are still poorly...
In 2008, a specimen of a pignosed arrowtooth eel, Dysomma brevirostre (Facciolà, 1887), was caught by a bottom trawling operation at Sigacik Bay (Aegean Sea), Turkey. Total length (TL) and weight of the fish were 23.2 cm and 2.00 g, respectively. This study reports the first record of D. brevirostre from the Aegean Sea and logs a new species for the Turkish Ichthyofauna.
Ten adult healthy bitches and 10 bitches with transmissible venereal tumour were investigated. Serum malondialdehyde, nitric oxide, antioxidant activity, vitamin C, retinol, β-carotene, adenosine deaminase activity, oestradiol-17β, progesterone, and cortisol were determined. Oxidative damage and increased adenosine deaminase activity were (P<0.05) demonstrated in bitches with the tumour compared...
