| Abstract: | This study targeted the skeletal anomalies in a European barracuda, Sphyraena sphyraena, and a starry weever, Trachinus radiatus obtained from the wild population of the north-eastern Aegean Sea, Izmir, Turkey. A severe case of consecutive repetition of lordosis-kyphosis was observed in the S. sphyraena, and a mild case of cranial lordosis, ankylosis, and hyperostosis in the T. radiatus. These records are equally important for fisheries biologists and aquaculturists as this is the first such report for the European barracuda and the starry weever, which supplements the abnormality incidences already recorded from Turkish waters. The evaluation of the anomalies in the investigated specimens was carried out based on morphological identification and using radiography. Possible reasons for such abnormalities are discussed. Additional investigation would be necessary to link specific contaminants with the examined types of anomaly. |
