Abstract
This study was carried out in the inland waters of Muğla Basin between 2018-2019. As a result of field studies and literature, it was determined that there were 36 species of fish belonging to 17 families (Anguillidae, Atherinidae, Cobitidae, Leuciscidae, Cyprinidae, Gobionidae, Nemacheilidae, Aphaniidae, Poeciliidae, Blenniidae, Centrarchidae, Cichlidae, Gobiidae, Moronidae, Mugilidae, Salmonidae, Siluridae).

In addition, seven species are exotic species (Carassius auratus, Carassius gibelio, Pseudorasbora parva, Gambusia holbrooki, Lepomis gibbosus, Coptodon zilli, Oncorhynchus mykiss). Fish fauna has been studied for the first time for Akyol Creek, Mazı Creek, Maden Creek, Gökçay Creek, Yanıklar Stream, and Bayir Reservoir.
