| Abstract: | A specimen of blackfish, Centrolophus niger (Gmelin, 1789), was caught on 13 April 2025 by trawl gear at a depth of 30 m off Baniya, Syria (eastern Mediterranean Sea). The specimen, measuring 281 mm in total length and weighing 195 g, is the first confirmed record of C. niger recorded to date in the coastal waters of Syria. Its description, including morphometric measurements and meristic counts, is provided in this study. This finding fills a distributional gap in the Levant Basin and suggests a viable population may be present in the region. |
