“…Capape and Zaouali (1981) stated that the adults of both sexes eat more teleosts and less lamellibranchs, gastropods than the juveniles. For other elasmobraches such as the marbled stingray, common stingray, Blackchin guitarfish, a similar pattern has been reported (Capape andZaouali, 1992, 1994;Ismen, 2003).…”

“…The percentage of readable vertebrae was 84% in this study. In the previous studies, the percentage was 19% with crystal violet dying techniques on Dasyatis pastinaca (Ismen, 2003) and 52% with X-ray techniques on Furgaleus macki (Simpfendorfer et al, 2000). Therefore, it can be hypothesized that the alcian blue dying techniques can be used successfully for elasmobranchs vertebrae.…”

Age and growth of the common guitarfish (Rhinobatos rhinobatos) were estimated from the north-eastern Mediterranean coast of Turkey. A total of 115 common guitarfish (66 females and 49 males) were sampled. Age determinations were carried out using vertebral sections. Alcian blue dying techniques were used to enhance the visibility of the band on vertebrae. The techniques have been used for the first time on elasmobranchs vertebrae successfully in this study. A total of 97 vertebrae of 115 were visible on the vertebral band in this study. Male and female common guitarfish ranged in age from 1 to 15 and 1 to 24 y respectively. Total length ranged from 42 to 147 cm for females and 39 to 124 cm for males.The relationships between total length (TL) and total weight (TW) were presented as TW ¼ 0.0014*TL 3.1672 (R 2 ¼ 0.98) for females, TW ¼ 0.0012*TL 3.1947 (R 2 ¼ 0.98) for males and TW ¼ 0.0012*TL 3.1915 (R 2 ¼ 0.98) for both sexes. The parameters for von Bertalanffy growth curves were estimated as L inf ¼ 137.70 + 9.38 cm, K ¼ 0.159 + 0.047, to ¼ 2 2.180 + 0.90 for pooled data.

“…It feeds on a wide variety of bottom-dwelling organisms. In a study by Ismen [66], crustaceans represented more than 99% of the diet when pooling all size classes, but teleost fish were of increasing importance in the diet of larger stingrays. The common stingray has been reported to reach a disc width (DW) of 1.4 m and a TL of 2.5 m, though a DW of 45 cm is more typical.…”

Chondrichthyes - Multidisciplinary Approach

In the present work, an overview of the demersal (sharks-chimaera) and bottom dwelling . Results suggest that most of the Chondrichthyes in South of Sicily are in a steady state, although in the last few years, they seemed to recover. The spatial distribution of sharks-chimaera in the geographical sub-area (GSA) 16 is mainly concentrated in the southern and north-western zones. Nevertheless, possible management actions to promote the recovering of these very important ecological and threatened species are discussed.
