dc.description.abstractThis study aimed to provide a comprehensive summary of the fundamental biological and certain population characteristics of Ciona intestinalis found along the Black Sea coasts of T & uuml;rkiye. The research was conducted between September 2022 and 15th, 2023, off the Sinop coast of the Black Sea, utilizing samples collected by commercial fishing vessels in the region. A total specimens of C. intestinalis were examined during the study. The average total length, width, and weight of C. intestinalis were +/- 0.089 cm, 1.967 +/- 0.054 cm, and 2.004 +/- 0.067 g, respectively. The length-weight relationship (LWR) and length-width relationship (LWdR) of C. intestinalis were established as W = 0.3996L1.2424 (R = 0.9389), Wd = 0.5362L + 0.0237 (R = 0.8897), and W = 0.9443Wd1.0889 (R = 0.8786), respectively. This study presents, for the first time, the LWR, LWdR, and WdWR for C. intestinalis, a species of significant importance in the benthic ecosystem of the Black Sea. It is anticipated that this research will lay the groundwork for future investigations into the population dynamics and biological aspects of this species.
