Title

First record of Eckström’s topknot Zeugopterus regius (Bonnaterre, 1788) in Belgian waters

Abstract

Here, we present the first record of Zeugopterus regius (Bonnaterre, 1788), a fish species new to the Belgian Part of the North Sea (BPNS) [1][2]. Its taxonomy, ecology, biology are discussed, and we speculate about its possible presence in suitable habitats in Belgian waters. We also provide information regarding the main morphological differences between Z. regius and two closely related species.
