| Abstract: | The identity of a large sunfish, stranded in 1999 on a beach of the north-western Adriatic Sea, has been shifted from Mola mola (Linnaeus, 1758) to Mola alexandrini (Ranzani, 1839), considering the recent taxonomic revision of the family Molidae. The faithful fiberglass model of the specimen is displayed at the Museo Civico di Storia Naturale di Comiso, Ragusa, Italy. The record of the species is the second one ascertained in the Adriatic Sea and one of the few records of the Bumphead sunfish documented to date in the Mediterranean Sea. |
