Occurrence and distribution of larval and juvenile fish was investigated in nearshore waters of the southeastern Caspian Sea including the Gorgan Bay. Samples were collected during seven surveys using a fine mesh beach-seine in five sampling sites from July 2014 to June 2015. A total of 15500 individuals mostly juvenile were captured, representing 18 species from 8 families. Most juveniles belo...

The morphometric indices of red blood cells young fish various species inhabiting coastal zones the water bodies were studied. subjects research four families: Carp (Alburnus alburnus, Carassius gibelio, Rhodeus amarus, Abramis brama, Rutilus rutilus), Needles (Syngnathus abaster nigro lineatus), Centrarchidae (Lepomis gibbosus), Loaches (Cobitis taenia taenia), Gobies (Neogobius fluviatilis). ...

Aim In this study, fish species living in the Elekçi Stream, which poured from borders of Fatsa District Ordu Province to Black Sea, were determine as taxonomical. Material and Methods samples taken Bolaman Rivers using an electroshock device six pre-determined stations between January 2017 October 2018. Specimens brought laboratory. The then stored formaldehyde solution (4%) for further examin...

The aim of this study was to determine the influence of environmental parameters onthe abundance of monkey goby Neogobius pallasi. A total of 526 and 163 individuals ofmonkey goby specimens were caught by electro-shocker in the Kaboodval and Shirabad Streams, respectively. The ranges of total length of the specimens in Kaboodval and Shirabad Streams were respectively 22-137.55 mm and 32.64-137....

Abstract The monkey goby Neogobius fluviatilis is an invasive Ponto-Caspian fish that enters habitats of the native gudgeon Gobio gobio in European freshwaters, likely belonging to same prey guild. Their abilities detect and avoid predation have been poorly understood, although these traits may contribute competitive advantage drive invasion success goby. We tested intra- interspecific response...

Salinity is an influential abiotic environmental factor in aquatic species, specifically freshwater, where salinization causes ecosystem degradation. Secondary salinization, that increases salinity due to anthropogenic activities, can affect both osmoregulation and behaviour freshwater fishes. It generally believed invasive species handle climatic change degradation better than native which one...
