Abstract
The present work aimed at determining the length-weight relationship of freshwater blenny (Salaria fluviatilis) in the 7 drainage basins of Turkey. For this purpose, total of 652 freshwater blenny specimens were examined belonging to the Marmara, Küçük Menderes, Western Black Sea, Antalya, Eastern Mediterranean, Seyhan and Ceyhan basins. Total lengths ranged from 2.0 to 12.9 cm and total weights ranged from 0.10 to 33.82 g. Length-weight relationship parameters were computed as a=0.0135, b=3.004, r2=0986 for all individuals of the species in the freshwater of Turkey. In addition, growth type were determined isometric in 5 basin, positive allometric in 1 basin and negative allometric in 1 basin.
