Abstract
The occurrence of several young and adult specimens of Schedophilus ovalis (Cuvier, 1833), found at different depths along the coasts of Sardinia, was documented. Morphological and meristic characters of some specimens were reported. The recent increase in the presence of this species indicates that it is progressively colonising the Central-western Mediterranean.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
