Abstract: This is the first study to report on aberrant otolith morphology and otolith types for Lophius budegassa in the Sea of Marmara. Light and scanning electron microscopes were used to determine aberrant otoliths in the L. budegassa samples. In the current study, detailed morphological information about normal and abnormal otoliths were determined. Type 0, Type 1, Type 3 and Type 4 were identified for left and right normal and aberrant sagittal otoliths of the L. budegassa. Otolith abnormalities were observed in both male and female individuals of different total lengths. These anomalies may have been caused by the stress caused by the changing water parameters connected to different pollutants in the Sea of Marmara. The determination of all aspects of otolith abnormalities is of great importance for both the aquatic habitat and other otolith studies.
