Abstract

An occurrence of a red cornetfish Fistularia petimba here reported for the first time from the Aegean Sea. On 19 October 2019 four specimens from the Gökova Bay and on 17 November 2019 one specimen from the Güllük Bay, were collected using different fishing gears in the Aegean Sea. This finding shows that F. petimba is rapidly expanding northwards, from the Levantine Sea to the Aegean Sea.

Ege Denizi’ndeki Kırmızı Külah Balığı (Fistularia petimba Lacepède, 1803)’nın İlk Kaydı

Abstract

Bu çalışmada, kırmızı külah balığı (Fistularia petimba)’nın Ege Denizi’ndeki ilk kaydı rapor edilmiştir. 19 Ekim 2019 tarihinde Gökova Körfezinden dört adet ve 17 Kasım 2019 tarihinde Güllük Körfezi’nden bir adet birey, farklı balık ağları ile elde edilmiştir. Bu bulgular, F. petimba’nın Levantin Denizi’nden Ege Denizi’ne, yani Kuzey’e doğru hızlı bir şekilde yayılmaya başladığını göstermektedir.
