A Corrigendum on
The Lost Fish of Turkey: A Recent History of Disappeared Species and Commercial Fishery Extinctions for the Turkish Marmara and Black Seas

by Ulman, A., Zengin, M., Demirel, N., and Pauly, D. (2020). Front. Mar. Sci. 7:650. doi: 10.3389/fmars.2020.00650

In the original article, there was a mistake in Figure 1 as published. The legend of Figure 1B was duplicated from Figure 1A and incorrectly indicated an Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) in Marmara Sea. The EEZ line has been removed from both figure parts, along with the EEZ area of 11,700 km2. The spelling of the Bosphorus (Istanbul) Strait has been corrected as it was misspelled “Bosporus.” In the original Figures 1A,B there were small maps with red squares showing the location of our study area. The squares have been removed from both figure parts and the map has been removed from Figure 1A. The corrected Figure 1 appears below.

Figure 1. (A) Black Sea and (B) the Sea of Marmara with the Bosphorus and Istanbul in the Northeast and the Dardanelles Strait in the Southwest, also displaying some cities and rivers mentioned in the text, with latitude and longitude.

The legend of Figure 1 has been updated accordingly. The correct legend appears below.

The authors apologize for this error and state that this does not change the scientific conclusions of the article in any way. The original article has been updated.
