| Abstract: | Among the 14 species of sharks occurring in the Sea of Marmara, bathidemersal species, which spend most of the day in bathyal depths over continental slopes or in trenches, constitute approximately 43% (6 species) of the sharks in the region. These species are: Hexanchus griseus, Echinorhinus brucus, Oxynotus centrina, Centrophorus cf. uyato, Dalatias licha and Galeus melastomus. For the last 30 years, amounts of dissolved oxygen in the deep layers of the Sea of Marmara have been below the levels required for the survival of marine life. It seems that deep-sea sharks are increasingly occupying the niches of other species living on the continental shelf of the Sea of Marmara. The impact of this situation on fisheries and the possible responses of commercial fishers to this ecological uncertainty cannot be predicted for now. Therefore, both scientific researchers and policy makers need to identify specific measures for an effective protection of sharks in the Sea of Marmara, giving priority to the most threatened species. |
