| Abstract: | This paper reports the expansion of the distribution range of Randall’s lizardfish Synodus randalli in the northeastern Mediterranean Sea. On 20 January 2024, a single specimen of S. randalli was caught by a commercial trawl net in Mersin Bay. The occurrence of this species on the Mediterranean coast of Turkey is probably due to its migration from the Red Sea via the Suez Canal. It appears that this species has spread rapidly in a short period of time and may establish itself in the eastern Mediterranean in the near future. This ichthyological note is important as it represents the second consecutive record of the species from the Turkish waters of the northeastern Mediterranean. Furthermore, the present record indicates a westward migration of S. randalli in the Mediterranean. This study also contributes important information on the maximum standard length of the species to the FishBase database. |
