Seasonal Variation in Length, Weight, and Sex Distribution of Turbot (Scophthalmus maeoticus Pallas, 1811) in the Sinop Region (Black Sea) of Turkey
The length, weight and sex distribution of turbot caught by bottom turbot gill nets were investigated in relation with seasons in the Sinop region. The size ranges were 23.9-69 cm and 31.8-81 cm for male and female turbot, respectively. Mean total length and weight were 50.37 ± 0.42 cm and 2483.2 ±...
