Abstract:

The bluespotted cornetfish Fistularia commersonii which originates from the Red Sea, appeared in the marine area of Rhodes Island (south-east Aegean Sea). This is a new record of the species based on 37 specimens caught during summer-winter 2001. The species appears to be spreading rapidly west and easily becoming established in Mediterranean coastal habitats. © 2002 The Fisheries Society of the British Isles.
