Özet

Age determination and an evaluation of the accuracy of five bony structures were performed on 89 samples collected from Bafra Altinkaya Dam Lake. Two readers aged the specimens according to vertebrate, otolith, scale, opercle and subopercle. The maximum rate of agreement was recorded for scale, followed by opercle, otolith, vertebrae and subopercle. -after Authors
