Abstract: | Tilapia zillii
Gervais is recorded for the first time from Suez Bay off the Institute of Oceanography and Fisheries, Ataqa (UAR), during October and November 1965 and 1966. Salinities and temperatures of surface sea water ranged from 42 to 42.79 and 23° to 24.4°C, respectively. The occurrence of specimens of T. zillii in the Bay indicates that it can tolerate high salinities and survive in the sea. |
