| Abstract: | In the Bomba Gulf, Tobruk, eastern Libya, a specimen of the fangtooth moray, Enchelycore anatina (Lowe, 1839), was caught in gill nets at approximately 20 m of depth. An additional observation of the species from southern Calabria, Italy, is also reported. The findings of this range-expanding species of Atlantic origin document the first record from Libyan waters and from the southern shores of the Mediterranean Sea as well as the expansion of the species’ distribution in western Ionian waters. |
