Occurence of Squatina aculeata Cuvier, 1829 (Elasmobranchii, Squatinidae) from the Aegean Sea, Turkey
Abstract
A single specimen of the sawback angel shark, Squatina aculeata Cuvier, 1829, was obtained from Gökova Bay (southern Aegean Sea). Previous record of the species was confined to the İskenderun Bay (eastern Mediterranean coast of Turkey). According to this finding, its distribution range at Turkish seas has extended to the southern Aegean Sea.
