Abstract
    In November 2022, two shimofuri (marbled) gobies Tridentiger bifasciatus Steindachner, 1881 were caught in the Gent–Terneuzen shipping canal, Belgium. It is the first record of the species in Europe. Outside its native distribution area in Japan, China and South Korea, thus far the shimofuri goby has been observed only on the West Coast of the USA, where established populations exist. The introduction vector potentially was ballast water exchange.
