Abstract
In this study, condition factors were determined for seven Cyprinid fish species from Çamligöze dam lake located at central Anatolian region of Turkey. The obtained results were compared with other studies from different habitats in Turkey. Fish samples were collected seasonally with nets of various mesh sizes from April 2010 to January 2011. Cyprinus carpio (1.6362 ± 0.2785) was determined to have the greatest mean condition factor followed by Capoeta tinca (1.3126 ± 0.1927), Leuciscus cephalus (1.2915 ± 0.3021), Barbus plebejus(1.1142 ± 0.1973), Chalcalburnus chalcoides (1.1138 ± 0.1251), Capoeta sieboldii (1.0214 ±0.1547) andChondrostoma nasus (0.9894 ± 0.2281) in Çamligöze dam lake. For Çamligöze dam lake, condition factors ofCyprinid fish species are given for the first time. Condition factors of seven Cyprinid fish species around “1” showed a good level of nutrition of fish and nutritional capacity in Çamligöze dam lake.
Key words: Çamligöze dam lake, Turkey, condition factor, cyprinid fish species.
