Ecology of Knipowitschia byblisia
 
Main Ref. Ahnelt, H., 2011
Remarks This small lake is characterised by brackish water (Akin et al. 2005), which would have favoured a euryhaline stock of Knipowitschia. Lake Köycegiz, a former bay of the Mediterranean Sea, was already in existence 4,000 BP. About 2,000 BP the harbour of the ancient city of Kaunos, located close to the lake, lost its connection to the open sea (Brückner 1997).
