This study aims to determine and compare the reference values of haematological biochemical blood parameters two fish species collected from Gökova Bay (Muğla, South-Western Türkiye): non-native invasive Randall’s threadfin bream, Nemipterus randalli native Common pandora, Pagellus erythrinus . Both inhabit same environment compete for resources. Blood samples were a total 100 (50 N. 50 P. ) which caught depth 30 60 meters between February 2023 July 2024. Therefore, sampling could be carried out in summer winter seasons when water temperature varies significantly. The results indicate that red cell (RBC), haemoglobin (Hb) haematocrit (Hct) levels significantly increases ( p < 0.05). Statistical analyses revealed all are higher than In terms serum parameters, glucose (GLU), triglyceride (TRIG), cholesterol (CHOL), protein (TP), aspartate aminotransferase (AST) alkaline phosphatase (ALP) had showed no significant difference both > However, alanine (ALT) statistically different compared Additionally, highest lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) value was measured this found other groups Multidimensional scaling (MDS) analysis differences parameter individuals. provides important data about physiological adaptations environmental factors. similarity possibility distribute new habitats where is distributed. suggests further potential distribution need careful monitoring.
