Abstract: The family Triperygiidae (Eng. Threefin blennies) is represented by three species in the Mediterranean. Two of these have been recorded for the Maltese Islands. Tripterygion tripteronotus Risso 1810 (Malt: Budakkra rasha sewda) is common and widespread and was recorded by Gulia (1861), Despott (1919), Lanfranco (1993), and Falzon (1999). Tripterygion melanurus melanurus Guichenot 1845 (Malt: Bzaru sekond) was recorded for the first time by Falzon (op. cit.) and has since been found to be common and fairly widespread. This brief paper reports on a third species that has been found.
