Horozbina balığının (Salaria fluviatilis) Ceyhan Nehir Havzası'daki dağılımı ve eşey grupları arasındaki morfolojik farklılıkları incelenmiştir. Nehir horozbina balığının Ceyhan Nehir Havzası'nda bulunuşu habitatların rakımına bağlı olarak değişmiş ve örnekler 750 m rakımın altındaki istasyonlardan elde edilmiştir. Örneklerin büyük çoğunluğunun dişi oluşu erkeklerin bekçilik görevinden kaynaklanmış olabileceğine; erkek bireylerin dişilerden büyük oluşu ise eşeysel dimorfizmin olduğuna yorumlanmıştır (P < 0,05). Eşey grupları arasındaki meristik özelliklerde herhangi bir farklılık görülmemiştir (P > 0,05). Varyans Analizi, standardize edilmiş morforrretrik karakterlerin tamamının eşey grupları arasında önemli derecede farklılıklar olduğunu göstermiştir. Kümelerarası Korelasyon Analizinde eşey grupları arasında morfolojik farklılıklar tespit edilmiştir. Birinci ve ikinci varyasyonlar grafik üzerinde kümeleştirildiğinde, eşey gruplarının birbirlerinden ayrı kümeler oluşturduğu tespit edilmiştir. Kümelerarası Korelasyon Analizinde bireylerin kendi grubuna doğru olarak sınıflandırılması, ergin olmayanlarda % 71,9, dişilerde % 79,0 ve erkeklerde ise % 65,7 olarak bulunmuştur. .Ana Bileşenler Analizine göre, eşey grupları arasında gözlenen farklılıkların genelde dorsal yüzgeç yüksekliği, baş yüksekliği, vücut yüksekliği ve kuyruk sapı yüksekliğinden kaynaklandığı tespit edilmiştir.

The distribution of the river blenny (Salaria fluviatilis) in the Ceyhan River basin and the morphological differences between the sexes were investigated. Occurrence of the river blenny in the Ceyhan River basin depended on altitude of the habitats, and specimens were obtained at altitudes < 750 m. Samples were strongly female biased, which may have been due to the eggguarding behavior of the males. There was also sexual dimorphism in that male blennies were larger than females (P < 0.05); however, there were no differences in the meristic counts between the sexes (P > 0.05). Analysis of variance showed that all of the standardized morphometric measurements were significantly different among the samples. In discriminant function analysis, morphological differentiation was determined between the sexes. Plotting discriminant function 1 to 2 separated the sexes from each other. Proportions of correctly classified individuals into their original groups were 71.9% for juveniles, 79.0% for females, and 65.7% for males. According to principal component analysis, the differences between the sexes resulted mainly from the measurements related to dorsal fin depth, head depth, body depth, and caudal peduncle depth.
