Title

An old Mediterranean record of Gaidropsarus granti (Regan, 1903)

Abstract

Two individuals of a rare fish species, Gaidropsarus granti, were collected in 1991 in the central Mediterranean Sea at 450 m depth. This species is considered typical of seamounts and deep-coral habitats, although it has been occasionally collected on soft bottoms. The insufficient records do not allow to ascertain its biogeographical status, and it is generally considered as a cryptogenic species. The present finding should be considered chronologically the third record of G. granti from the Mediterranean.
