New records of Bregmaceros atlanticus (Bregmacerotidae), Echiodon dentatus (Carapidae) and Nemichthys scolopaceus (Nemichthyidae) from the Aegean Sea
Abstract
Three fish species, Bregmaceros atlanticus Goode et Bean, 1886 (Bregmacerotidae), Echiodon dentatus (Cuvier, 1829) (Carapidae), and Nemichthys scolopaceus Richardson, 1848 (Nemichthyidae) were recorded in the Siğacik and Kuşadasi Bays (Eastern Aegean Sea, Turkey). B. atlanticus and E. dentatus constitute new records for the Turkish waters and the Aegean Sea, respectively. The finding of Nemichthys scolopaceus is the second record for the Aegean Sea.
