Some biological parameters of painted comber (Serranus scriba L., 1758) in the Black Sea

Journal Title: Turkish Journal of Maritime and Marine Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 3, Issue 1

Abstract

In this study, some population parameters of the painted comber (Serranus scriba) of Black Sea was investigated. In June 2017, a total 15 individuals (14 female and 1 male) were sampled with trammel nets in the Middle Black Sea region. The mean length and the mean weight of the specimens were determined as 20.3 cm + 3.8 (Min:11.3 - Max:25) and 139.6 cm + 57.6 (Min:16.4 - Max:220), respectively. The gonads of 13 individuals were mature and the average fecundity was estimated as 7735.8/1g. The mean egg diameter was measured as 507.2 μm + 86.9 (Min:380.5 – Max:744.3). The length - weight relationship was described by the following formula W = 0.0052L3.3478 (R² = 0.9809) with a positive allometric growth.
