Abstract
This study determined the distribution and some diagnostic characteristics of Capoeta damascina, which belongs to the Cyprinidae family, in the Ceyhan and Seyhan River basins. C. damascina individuals were detected in 21 of 25 Ceyhan River Basin stations and 12 out of 15 in the Seyhan River basin stations. C. damascina show a wide distribution in the Ceyhan and Seyhan River basins. It has been determined that C. damascina lives at altitudes between 125 m (Hemite Stream) and 1620 m (Söğütlü Stream) in the Ceyhan River basins, and in streams at altitudes ranging from 165 m (Çakıt stream) to 1758 m (Sarız Stream) in the Seyhan River basins. The average total length of C. damascina individuals (n: 218) caught in the Ceyhan River Basin is 14.72 cm, and their average weight is 40.12 g. In the Seyhan River basin, the average total length of C. damascina individuals (n: 74) was found to be 17.31 cm, and their average weight was 72.24 g. The mean number of line lateral scales was 71, the number of gill rakers was 23, and the number of pharyngeal teeth was 4:3:2-2:3:4.
