| Materials and Methods The study was conducted in Iskenderun and Antalya bays between March 2007 and October 2007(Figure 1). Common guitarfish (RhinobatosrhinobatosL., 1758) belonged to Rhinobatidae family from the cartilaginous fishes was preferred as the fish material by hunting operations from the bays. Some reasons such as being common guitarfish a benthic species, spending his most of the time under the sediment by burrowing12, 13&50, and feeding on the pollution representing foods such as mollusks and mussels51 led common guitarfish to choose and assess the heavy metal pollution in the bays. 21 common guitarfishes from Iskenderun Bay between March 2007 and April 2007 and 20 guitarfishes from Antalya Bay between September 2007 and October 2007 were caught by means of bottom trawling and long-line fishing. Fish samples brought to the laboratory, were weighed and their … |
