Abstract

Abstract The long-spined sea urchin Diadema setosum (Leske 1778) is recorded for the first time from coast of Yayladagi, Antakya Bay, Eastern Mediterranean Sea, Turkey. Three specimens of D. setosum have been recorded along the coast of Antakya Bay on 25 July 2010. The occurrence of this species in the Mediterranean is the result of sea currents from the Red Sea via Suez Canal.
