Acta Aquatica Turcica, 17(1), 72- 77. https://doi.org/10.22392/actaquatr.755915 Abstract The distributions and length-weight relationships of three cardinalfishes, namely Broadbanded cardinalfish Ostorhinchus fasciatus (White, 1790), Spotfin cardinalfish Jaydia queketti (Gilchrist, 1903), and Smith's cardinalfish Jaydia smithi Kotthaus, 1970 caught as discards in bottom trawl fisheries in the Northeastern Mediterranean (Gulf of Antalya and Finike Bay) were investigated. A total of 607 specimens were sampled with 108 trawl hauls carried out in 3 stations at a depth of 20- 200 m seasonally. Ostorhinchus fasciatus was the most abundant species with 552 specimens, contributing 90.9% of the total sampling. Total amounts of Jaydia smithi and Jaydia queketti species had fewer sample numbers like 31 (5.1%) and 24 (4%), respectively. All three species were sampled the most in the summer season. The length-weight relationships were significant (p > 0.001), with values of r2 ranging from 0.90 to 0.94.

The number of records of non-indigenous fish species found in Turkish marine waters were 101 of which 89 bony, 11 cartilaginous and 1 jawless. In terms of occurrence of non-indigenous fish species in the surrounding Turkish marine waters, the Mediterranean coast has the highest diversity (92 species), followed by the Aegean Sea (50 species), the Marmara Sea (11 species) and the Black Sea (2 species). The Indo-Pacific origin of the non-indigenous fish species is represented with 73 species while the Atlantic origin of the non-indigenous species is represented with 22 species. Only first occurrence of a species in the Mediterranean, Aegean, Marmara and Black Sea Coasts of Turkey is given with its literature in the list.

ABSTRACT The eastern part of the Mediterranean is suffering from environmental and human stresses; therefore, tropical marine species continued to invade the Mediterranean, relying on the human-paved path, which has been routed by environmental changes. Apogonidae family has about 320 small fish species, eight of them are found in the Mediterranean Sea. This paper shows that new 43 individuals of Jaydia smithi is an Apogonidae species, had been recorded at Banyas coast- Syria 2019; about 40 km south. Page © 2020 Discovery Publication.

INTRODUCTION The eastern part of the Mediterranean is suffering from environmental and human stresses; surface currents carry high concentration of pollutants to this area (Danovaro, 2003), and global warming makes the conditions converge with those in tropical waters (Ibrahim, 2008, Lelieveld et al., 2012).

Abstract. Indian Ocean twospot cardinalfi sh, Cheilodipterus novemstriatus (Rüppell, 1838), is recorded for the fi rst time from the Turkish marine waters. Two specimens of C. novemstriatus were sampled with a purse seiner on 1 December 2014, and also a school of C. novemstriatus was photographed during scuba diving at a depth of 13 m on a rocky surface on 8 December 2014 in the Cevlik coast, Iskenderun Bay, north-eastern Mediterranean of Turkey. With the present report, the number of alien cardinal fi sh species reported in the Turkish coasts has reached fi ve.
