Abstract

To enrich spatio-temporal information on the distribution of alien, cryptogenic, and neonative species in the Mediterranean and the Black Sea, a collective effort by 173 marine scientists was made to provide unpublished records and make them open access to the scientific community. Through this effort, we collected and harmonized a dataset of 12,649 records. It includes 247 taxa, of which 217 are Animalia, 25 Plantae and 5 Chromista, from 23 countries surrounding the Mediterranean and the Black Sea. Chordata was the most abundant taxonomic group, followed by Arthropoda, Mollusca, and Annelida. In terms of species records, Siganus luridus, Siganus rivulatus, Saurida lessepsianus, Pterois miles, Upeneus moluccensis, Charybdis (Archias) longicollis, and Caulerpa cylindracea were the most numerous. The temporal distribution of the records ranges from 1973 to 2022, with 44% of the records in 2020–2021. Lethrinus borbonicus is reported for the first time in the Mediterranean Sea, while Pomatoschistus quagga, Caulerpa cylindracea, Grateloupia turuturu, and Misophria pallida are first records for the Black Sea; Kapraunia schneideri is recorded for the second time in the Mediterranean and for the first time in Israel; Prionospio depauperata and Pseudonereis anomala are reported for the first time from the Sea of Marmara. Many first country records are also included, namely: Amathia verticillata (Montenegro), Ampithoe valida (Italy), Antithamnion amphigeneum (Greece), Clavelina oblonga (Tunisia and Slovenia), Dendostrea cf. folium (Syria), Epinephelus fasciatus (Tunisia), Ganonema farinosum (Montenegro), Macrorhynchia philippina (Tunisia), Marenzelleria neglecta (Romania), Paratapes textilis (Tunisia), and Botrylloides diegensis (Tunisia).

Abstract

This work presents refined, updated subregional and regional non-indigenous species (NIS) inventories for the Mediterranean Sea, validated by national and taxonomic experts, with species records observed until December 2020. These datasets will be used as the baselines for the implementation of the Integrated Monitoring and Assessment Programme for the Mediterranean (IMAP) and the Mediterranean Quality Status Report 2023. In total, 1006 non-indigenous species have been found in Mediterranean marine and brackish waters. The highest numbers of NIS were observed in Israel, Türkiye, Lebanon and Italy. Approximately 45 species were categorized as data deficient, either due to lack of consensus on their alien status or the validity of their identification. Polychaeta, Foraminifera and macroalgae were the groups with the highest numbers of controversial species. There was a general increase in the yearly rate of new NIS introductions after the late 1990s, which appears to be slowing down in the last decade, but this may be confounded by reporting lags and differential research efforts. Between 1970 and 2020 there has been a steep increase in the proportion of shared species present throughout all four Mediterranean subregions, which are predominantly transported via shipping and recreational boating. While Lessepsian species are gradually spreading westwards and northwards, there is still a considerable invasion debt accumulating in the eastern and central Mediterranean.

Abstract

This study presents the first comprehensive assessment of alien species occurrences within the selected 11 Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) located on the Aegean and Levantine coasts of Turkey. The inventory includes a total of 289 species belonging to 15 phyla, in which lowest and highest diversities were observed in Saros Bay MPA (27 species, northern Aegean Sea) and Fethiye-Gocek Bay MPA (150 species, northwest Levantine Sea), respectively. Alien species distributions that were revealed in protected areas located in the southern Aegean and Levantine Seas were 56.9% similar (based on presence vs. absence data), while northern Aegean sites formed another distinct group. According to the breakdown of major phyla through the entire study areas, Mollusca had the highest alien diversity (22.1% of alien species), followed by Actinopterygii (19.0%), Arthropoda (15.2%) and Annelida (13.5%). Casual aliens were represented by very low proportions in each MPA, proving that most species were already established in the region, with a significant proportion of invasive species. Regardless of the localities, the majority of the species originated from the Red Sea, whose primary pathway of introduction is the corridor, the Suez Canal. In the absence of effective management actions against bioinvasions, MPAs located along the Turkish coastline do not currently seem to provide any protection, revealing a large conservation gap to be filled.

Abstract

Good datasets of geo-referenced records of alien species are a prerequisite for assessing the spatio-temporal dynamics of biological invasions, their invasive potential, and the magnitude of their impacts. However, with the exception of first records on a country level or wider regions, observations of species presence tend to remain unpublished, buried in scattered repositories or in the personal databases of experts. Through an initiative to collect, harmonize and make such unpublished data for marine alien and cryptogenic species in the Mediterranean Sea available, a large dataset comprising 5376 records was created. It includes records of 239 alien or cryptogenic taxa (192 Animalia, 24 Plantae, 23 Chromista) from 19 countries surrounding the Mediterranean Sea. In terms of records, the most reported Phyla in descending order were Chordata, Mollusca, Chlorophyta, Arthropoda, and Rhodophyta. The most recorded species was Caulerpa cylindracea, followed by Siganus luridus, Magallana sp. (cf. gigas or angulata) and Pterois miles. The dataset includes records from 1972 to 2020, with the highest number of records observed in 2018. Among the records of the dataset, Dictyota acutiloba is a first record for the Mediterranean Sea. Nine first country records are also included: the alga Caulerpa taxifolia var. distichophylla, the cube boxfish Ostracion cubicus, and the cleaner shrimp Urocaridella pulchella from Israel; the sponge Paraleucilla magna from Libya and Slovenia; the lumpfish Cyclopterus lumpus from Cyprus; the bryozoan Celleporaria vermiformis and the polychaetes Prionospio depauperata and Notomastus aberans from Malta.

Abstract

[[Genus Macroramphosus]] Discussion A total of 16 proportions of morphometric measurements were analyzed in this study. Five parameters (SnL/SL, HL/SL, PBL/SL, SnL/HL, MBD/LBDS) were similar between the two species, while a statistically significant difference was found for the remaining 11 characters (Table 1). Eye diameter measurements and its proportion in relation to HL, D1-D2 and PHL gave significant results. The most striking ratios were found to be as ED/D1-D2 (eye diameter greater than the length between dorsal fins in M. scolopax versus smaller in M. gracilis) and ED/PHL (postocular head length smaller than the eye diameter in M. gracilis, larger in M. scolopax). These ratios were previously used in identification keys to Mediterranean centriscid species by Bauchot & Pras (1980) and Tortonese (1970), respectively. The mean ED/HL indicates a smaller eye diameter for M. gracilis (16.74%), when compared to M. scolopax (19.04%). In several previous studies, length of dorsal spine (LDS) was considered as a very important character to discriminate Macroramphosus spp. Our findings revealed a slight overlap in the range values of LDS/SL and LDS/PBL; however, their mean values indicate a clear difference between the two species, where M. gracilis has a shorter dorsal spine when compared to M. scolopax. Similar results were obtained from studies conducted in the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans (Brethes, 1979; Assis, 1992; Mathiessen et al., 2003; Miyazaki et al., 2004). The eastern Mediterranean specimens of M. gracilis had conspicuously weaker dorsal spines, which does not reach to caudal base, as also noted by G��nther (1889) and Smith (1965). Maximum body depths of the two species differ significantly. MBD/SL and MBD/ PBL ratios were smaller for M. gracilis, as a result of the slender body shape. Similar results were obtained by Brethes (1979), Assis (1992) and Miyazaki et al. (2004). We determined that body depth is found 3.71-4.60 times in SL of M. scolopax, and 4.53-5.39 times in M. gracilis, in agreement with the findings of Tortonese (1970). Apart from metric measurements, some other distinctive morphological characters were determined between the two species. The occipital crest located at the anterior part of eye bears prominent spinules in two or three rows in M. scolopax, but no spinule was observed on the occipital crest of M. gracilis (Figure 3). D���Ancona (1933) reported that, both supraorbital and occipital crests are visible in specimens with 3 mm length, becoming conspicuous in fish larger than 9 mm. Thus, a change in occipital crest structure through developmental stages between juveniles and adults is not expected, and this character can be used in distinguishing the two centriscid species. The relatively straight ventral body profile of M. gracilis is another distinctive feature, which was also mentioned in previous studies (D���Ancona, 1933; Miyazaki et al., 2004). The well-developed elevated scutes between the pelvic and anal fins of M. scolopax are conspicuous, while in M. gracilis scutes are either absent or represented by a single weakly developed scute (Figure 4). This character was stated to be diagnostic for Japanese Macroramphosus spp. (Miyazaki et al., 2004), which seems to be also valid for Mediterranean species. The number of spinules along the posterior margin of D2 spine of M. gracilis tends to be lower than M. scolopax (0-14 vs 14-23 spinules). The less denticulated dorsal spine structure of M. gracilis was also indicated by G��nther (1889) and Tortonese (1970). Miyazaki et al. (2004) examined dorsal spine denticulation based on Japanese coast centriscids, where a degeneration of spinules by 50 mm SL was noted for M. gracilis - which is not the case in Mediterranean specimens. Since both centriscid species are known to be sympatric (i.e. Assis, 1992), the assumption indicated by Matthiessen et al. (2004) that ecological differences in diet composition and habitat use of sympatric species promotes morphological diversification should be concerned. Macroramphosus scolopax and M. gracilis are two morphologically similar species with some overlapping metric and meristic measurements, and no single character provides precise (Assis, 1992; Mathiessen et al., 2003). Based on the results of our study, the following combination of characters should be used in distinguishing Mediterranean specimens of M. gracilis from M. scolopax: first dorsal fin originating before anus; second spine of first dorsal not extending beyond second dorsal fin base; length between two dorsal fins greater than the eye diameter; ventral scutes not protruding; less developed projecting scute between pelvic and anal fins., Published as part of Murat Bilecenoglu, 2006, Status of the genus Macroramphosus (Syngnathiformes: Centriscidae) in the eastern Mediterranean Sea., pp. 55-64 in Zootaxa 1273 on pages 60-62

Abstract

Age, growth and diet of brown comber, Serranus hepatus, were determined from specimens collected in Izmir Bay, Aegean Sea. Total length ranged from 5.20 to 11.70 cm, while weight varied between 1.89 and 24.97 g. The length-weight relationship was W=0.0157*L2.998. Age was determined by otolith readings, where a maximum age of 4 years was observed. The von Bertalanffy growth parameters were estimated as L∞=11.90 cm, k=0.56, to=–1.14. Stomach content analysis revealed that the species is carnivorous, with benthic crustaceans constituting the main food in the overall diet composition., Starost, rast i prehrambene navike vučića, Serranus hepatus, su ustanovljene na primjercima prikupljenim u Izmirskom zaljevu, Egejsko more. Ukupna duljina kretala se od 5.20 do 11.70 cm, a težina od 1.89 do 24.97 g. Duljinsko-maseni odnos je iznosio W=0.0157*L2.998. Starost je određena prema očitanju otolita, te je ustanovljena maksimalna starost od 4 godine. Von Bertalanffy-ijevi parametri rasta su iznosili kao što slijedi: L∞=11.90 cm, k=0.56, to= –1.14. Analiza sadržaja želudaca je otkrila da ova vrsta spada u mesoždere jer su u njezinoj prehrani najzastupljeniji bili raci.

Abstract

This study provides a description of the Mediterranean monk seal ( Monachus monachus ) diet from the Aegean Sea coast of Turkey. A total of 23 prey items belonging to five species were identified from the two stomachs examined. Cephalopods constitute the dominant prey group by weight (94·01%). Sarcotragus sp. (Porifera) and Posidonia oceanica (Magnoliophyta) are assumed to be incidental prey. Of the cephalopods identified, Eledone moschata and Bathypolypus sponsalis were encountered for the first time in a monk seal stomach.

Abstract

Vanderhorstia mertensi Klausewitz, 1974, is a recently acknowledged alien fish in theMediterranean Sea, hitherto observed only from Fethiye Bay, Turkey. To explore its distribution, trawl bycatch from eastern Antalya and Iskenderun was examined and an underwater survey was performed off Kas (western Antalya). An established population was found off Güvercin Island, Kas, and six specimens were identified from trawl bycatch collected off Antalya and Iskenderun. The trawl-collected specimens were badly damaged and identification was made possible by the analysis of their 16S rDNA sequences. Our findings suggest that the species was only recently introduced and its population size has increased rapidly. Symbiotic relationship with alpheids (Apheidae, Crustacea) may have enhanced this prawn-goby's establishment and dispersal along the Mediterranean coast of Turkey. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
