14 Mart 2020 tarihinde bir dişi Balistes capriscus (çütre balığı) bireyi (SB:46.24 mm, TB: 59.23 cm, ağırlık: 2600 gr.) Saroz Körfezi’nden paraketa ile 30 m. derinlikten yakalandı. Türün tanımlanması morfometrik özelliklerine göre yapılmıştır. Morfometrik ölçümler sırasıyla 0.05 mm and 0.01 gr. hassasiyetli bir dijital kumpas ve terazi kullanılarak gerçekleşti. Bu makale B. capriscus’un küresel ısınmayla ilişkili olarak, Ege Denizi’ndeki kuzeye doğru yayılışını genişlettiğini bildirmektedir. Burada, Saroz Körfezi’nde ikinci kez bulunan bu nadir türün başlıca morfometrik ve meristik özellikleri verilmiştir. Bu bilgi küresel ısınma süresince değişen biyoçeşitliliğin izlenmesi bakımından önemlidir.

ne female specimen of Balistes capriscus (SL: 46.24 mm, TL:59.23 cm, TW: 2600 g.) was captured at the depth of 30 m. by longlining in Saros Bay (Türkiye) on 14th March, 2020. Description of the species
were based on morphometric characteristics. Morphometric measurements were carried out, using a digital calliper of 0.05 mm accuracy and digital balance of 0.01 g., respectively. This paper declares the northernmost extension range of B. capriscus in Turkish Aegean Sea, related to global heating. Here, the major morphometric and meristic characters of this rare species which was secondly found in Saros Bay were given. This knowledge is important in terms of tracking biological diversity changing during global heating.
