Özet
The present study aims to investigate the condition, length-weight (LWRs) and length-length relationships (LLRs) of four introduced freshwater fish species (Carassius gibelio, Cyprinus carpio, Gambusia holbrooki, and Pseudorasbora parva) inhabited in the inland waters of Gökçeada (Çanakkale, Turkey). Fish samples were collected using electrofishing from one lentic (Büyük Stream) and four lotic (Aydıncık, Dereköy, Gökçeada, and Uğurlu Reservoirs) ecosystems between April 2019 and September 2020. The calculated values of parameter b in the LWRs were 3.275 and 3.230 for G. holbrooki (Uğurlu and Büyük populations, respectively), 3.031 and 2.937 for C. carpio (Aydıncık and Dereköy populations, respectively), 3.129 for C. gibelio and 3.047 for P. parva. Values of Fulton's condition factor (K) varied between 1.72 ± 0.23 (P. parva, Gökçeada population) and 3.60 ± 0.33 (C. carpio, Dereköy population). The coefficients of correlation (r) for all the LLR equations were greater than 0.95 and significantly linear. The present study provides the first knowledge about the selected biological parameters for four introduced freshwater fish species in Gökçeada.
