| Abstract: | This study describes a female specimen of the brown ray Raja miraletus Linnaeus, 1758, found along the coast of the city of Aydıncık (Mersin Bay, Turkey) in the northeastern Mediterranean Sea, exhibiting disk deformities. The deformation is located on the right disk portion of the specimen, with no other deformities observed on the rest of the body. The juvenile female specimen measures 22 centimeters in disk diameter, 31.7 centimeters in total length, and weighs 186 grams. This specimen represents the first recorded abnormality of the species R. miraletus in Turkish Mediterranean waters, and this report provides the first information on the presence of abnormalities in female specimens of the species R. miraletus. |
