| Abstract: | On 26 August 2010, a common torpedo (Torpedo torpedo), was incidentally captured in bottom-trawl fishery off the coast of Samandag (northeastern Mediterranean Sea). The specimen was a male measuring 295 mm in TL, 152 mm in DW, and weighing 327 g. A systematic review of available data revealed that there have been at least 12 specimens of T. torpedo captured in Turkish waters. However, contemporary catch records from the investigated area show that the common torpedo is no longer as common in Turkish seas as its name might suggest – a fact further corroborated by the sporadic nature of these records. To develop and implement an effective management plan for the conservation of T. torpedo, systematic data collection is essential. |
