Abstract

An individual of corkwing wrasse Symphodus melops (female) was captured by trammel nets on May 15, 2020, at 20 m depths from Ordu, the southern Black Sea coast. The total length and weight were measured as 320 mm and 520 g. The specimen was female with a gonad weight of 42 g and it was determined to be eight years old. This is the first record for the S. melops from the Black Sea. Its total length and weight were the maximum observed values for the species for the World. The paper is considered to contribute to fisheries biology and international scientific literature.
