Abstract

The otolith organs located in the inner ear of the fish are responsible for vital activities such as balance and hearing. Abnormalities in these organs can adversely affect the vital activities of the fish species. The main purpose of the study is to analyze the abnormalities in the otoliths of Sarpa salpa, known as the hallucinogenic fish. For that, 372 individuals of S. salpa are collected from the North Aegean Sea. As a result of the abnormality analyses in S. salpa otoliths, anomalies were detected such as various prominence structures on the surface of the otolith caused by accumulation and a more transparent appearance due to the different crystal structures in some parts of the otolith. These abnormalities were found in the left and/or right otoliths of male and female individuals in different total lengths. The percentage of individuals with abnormal otoliths of S. salpa is calculated as 52.42%. It was determined that there are statistical differences between the left and right otolith measurements of male and female individuals with abnormal and normal otoliths(p < 0.05). There is no relationship between the percentage of individuals showing abnormality and total length and sex. The current study presents for the first time abnormal otolith information on left and right otoliths in male and female S. salpa. It is thought that abnormalities in hallucinogenic fish otoliths could be related to genetic predisposition as well as stress due to nutritional preference, pollutants, and environmental factors. RESEARCH HIGHLIGHTS: The presence of abnormalities in the otoliths of Sarpa salpa, a hallucinogenic fish, was revealed for the first time. Abnormalities in the otoliths of S. salpa were identified, such as the presence of various prominence structures on the otolith's surface, loss of parts as well as a more transparent appearance in the outlines or surface of the otolith. Normal and abnormal otoliths of female and male hallucinogenic fish from different size groups were examined using light and scanning electron microscopy. Abnormality detected in the otoliths of hallucinogenic fish is not related to the gender and size of the fish.

利用光成像和扫描电子数字成像技术研究致幻鱼类耳石的异常现象及其与正常耳石的比较。
位于鱼类内耳的耳石器官负责平衡和听力等重要活动。这些器官的异常会对鱼类的生命活动产生不利影响。这项研究的主要目的是分析被称为致幻鱼的 Sarpa salpa 耳石的异常情况。为此,研究人员从北爱琴海采集了 372 条萨尔帕鱼。通过对萨尔帕鱼耳石的异常分析,发现了一些异常现象,如耳石表面因堆积而形成的各种突出结构,以及耳石某些部分因晶体结构不同而呈现出的更加透明的外观。这些异常情况出现在不同总长度的雌雄个体的左侧和/或右侧耳石中。经计算,萨尔帕鱼耳石异常个体的比例为 52.42%。经测定,耳石异常和耳石正常的雌雄个体的左侧和右侧耳石测量值之间存在统计学差异(p<0.05)。
