Özet
Çalışma Gökçeada'nın kuzeyinde 500-600; 600-800; 800-1000 m'lik derinlik katmanlarında, her bir katmanda 9 istasyon olmak üzere toplam 27 istasyonda gerçekleştirildi. Örnekler derin deniz pareketa sistemiyle elde edildi. Çalışma bölgesinde 13 kıkırdaklı, 7 kemikli toplam 20 balık türü tespit edildi. Çalışma boyunca Galeus melastomus, Sycliorhinus canicula, Conger conger, Phycis blennoides ve Merluccius merluccius en baskın türler olarak belirlendi.
Abstract
The study were carried out at 27 stations from North of Gökçeada island at three subareas between 500 and 600; 600 and 800; 800 and 1000 m. There are nine stations at each subaraea. Samplings were obtained by deep sea longline. A total of 20 fish species of 13 cartilaginous and 7 bony fishes were collected in the study area. Galeus melastomus, Sycliorhinus canicula, Conger conger, Phycis blennoides and Merluccius merluccius were determined dominant species during the studying period.
