Parophidion vassali Risso, 1810 (Ophidiiformes: Ophidiidae)’nin Libya Kıyılarından İlk Kaydı

Öz

Bu çalışmada nadir görülen bir balık ilk defa Libya’dan bildirilmiştir. Yaklaşık 108.1 mm uzunluğundaki bir Parophidion vassali otolit özelliklerine bakılarak tayin edilmiştir. Bu örnek, Kasım 2021 tarihinde Libya’nın doğusundaki Bingazi kıyılarında yakalanan bir kertenkele balığının (Synodus saurus) mide muhteviyatından elde edilmiştir.

First Record from the Libyan Coast of Parophidion vassali Risso, 1810 (Ophidiiformes: Ophidiidae)

Öz

This research presents the first recording of a rare species of fish from Libya. A specimen of Parophidion vassali approximately 108.1 mm in length was identified using the characteristics of the otoliths. The specimen was recovered from the contents of the stomach of a lizard fish (Synodus saurus) collected from the coast of Benghazi, eastern Libya, during November 2021.
