Özet

There are 10 crayfish species cultured commonly throughout the world belong to Astacidae, Cambaridae, and Parastacidae families. While Astacidae and Cambaridae are cultured in the northern hemisphere, Parastacidae occurs in the southern hemishephere. Extensive culture techniques are used in crayfish culture mostly and semi-intensive and intensive methods are also performed. Global crayfish production through culture has been increased when compared to previous years. However, in our country, crayfish production decreased dramatically from 5000 to 200 tons after 1985 because of overfishing, pollution and crayfish plague (Aphanomyces astaci). To refresh our country's crayfish production potential, the present crayfish population need to be managed properly and determined the new crayfish species have high economic importance and reproductive traits to our country's conditions. Therefore, cultured crayfish species were examined with respect to their production and adaptation characteristics.
