Length-Length, Length-Weight Relationships and Condition Factors of Some Anatolian Oxynoemacheilus seyhanensis (Bănărescu, 1968) Populations

This study was conducted to provide length-weight (LWRs), length-length (LLRs) relationships and condition factor of Oxynoemacheilus seyhanensis from seven habitats belonging three inland water basins Turkey. A total 166 specimens were collected Yıldızeli, Taşköprü, Suşehri (Kızılırmak basin), Büyükpotuklu, Pınarbaşı Örenşehir (Seyhan basin) Akdağmadeni (Yeşilırmak rivers during 2017-2019. The mean (±SE) the total, fork lengths weight calculated as 6.49±1.59 cm, 6.35±1.60 cm 3.47±2.41 g, respectively. b constant LWRs ranged 2.29 (Suşehri) 3.52 (Büyükpotuklu), showing growth pattern positive allometric in all studied populations except (negative allometric), (ısometric) (isometric) population. Condition 0.92 (Pınarbaşı) 1.15 (Örenşehir). In with r2 higher than 0.91. results above-mentioned parameters for this deep-bodied stone loach showed that wide range b-value shows morphological flexibility species different habitats.
