Several microsatellite loci were tried for Scophthalmus maeoticus by using microsatellite primers which have been developed and reported to date for turbot Scophthalmus maximus (Linnaeus, 1758) to understand if they are appropriate usage for S. maeoticus. We noticed the development and characterization of polymorphic microsatellite markers for S. maeoticus. Only five of these microsatellite loci were successfully amplified with new developed PCR conditions and used for routine analysis of stock identification of S. maeoticus.

Scopthalmus rhombus is rarely occurred and restricted to marine and estuarine sites in the eastern Marmara Sea and western Black Sea coast of Turkey. S. rhombus is occasionally caught in low numbers and continuously decreased in abundance due to overfishing and habitat degradations. This species should be considered to be threatened for Turkish marine waters. This species might also be recorded in the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species as Near Threatened (NT).

On 15 March 2015, a single specimen of Parupeneus forsskali (Fourmanoir & Guézé, 1976) was captured by a trammel net at a depth of 30 m from Iskenderun Bay. The occurrence of the Red Sea goatfish P. forsskali was reported for the first time in the Iskenderun Bay and the first captured data for the Turkish marine waters.

Otolith chemistry analyses showed high differentiation of turbot stocks, revealing a clear discreteness of the Black Sea (Duzce and Trabzon) and Marmarasamples, indicating limited gene flow between the regions. Univariate analysis of variance showed significant differences between means of all the samples for all otolith elements (Ba, Mg, Mn, Sr, Na, K and Ca) (P<0.001). The contribution of each element in distinguishing between the populations for the first discriminant functions revealed high contribution from the elements Sr, Mg, Mn and Na in the discriminant analysis. Overall assignment of individuals into their original sample was % 100. There was highly positive correlation in the otolith elements concentration between Ca and Ba, Mg and Ba; and negative correlations between Na and Sr, Mn and Sr.

Abstract: This study investigate the region between the coast of Samandağ-Deniz district and coast of Yayladağı-Keldağ in Northeastern Mediterranean coast of Turkey in order to be Marine Protected Area due to having endangered the Mediterranean monk seal (Monachus monachus), sea turtles (Chelonia mydas ve Caretta caretta), and also high fish species diversity and underwater historical ruins .
