Özet

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=0.0110TL (3.057) for males, W=0.0114TL( 3.043) for females, and W=0.0089TL( 3.122) for all the specimens. The results denoted a high correlation (r(2) =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).
