Abstract

The aim of this study is to analyze the changes
of economic fish species in the in İskenderun Bay by providing life and
conservation area for fish species. Therefore,            the study was carried out by building 172
artificial reefs (150 cubic and 22 octagonal) in September 2013, on the
southern coastline of the Iskenderun Bay 7-8 m in depths far from the 300 m
shore, located in the Eastern Mediterranean. The visual census technique was
used to determine fish species and abundance. Observations were made with four
scuba dives between January 2014 and October 2014. As a result of this
observations, 121 individuals belonging to 7 fish species were detected. The
maximum number of individuals (32) in the sample were Mugil sp. it belongs to species. The minimum number of individuals
of observed species were Lichia amia
(1) and Epinephelus aeneus (1).
Furthermore, it was observed that mollusk varieties and some algae species were
located.
