“…The presence of P. aztecus has also been recently reported from sporadic findings in the Adriatic Sea (e.g. Montenegro: Marković et al, 2014) and the Ionian Sea (e.g. off Corfu Island: Kapiris & Apostolidis in Kapiris et al, 2014).…”

“…Its presence in the Mediterranean basin has been reported in Antalya Bay, Turkey (Deval et al, 2010), the Gulf of Iskenderun and Finike (Gökoğlu & Ovzarol, 2013), and in Montenegrin waters (Marković et al, 2014). Deval et al (2010) considered ship ballast waters as the most likely vector for its introduction in the eastern Mediterranean.…”

According to reports, the following 16 species have extended their distribution to other Mediterranean areas or have made a new appearance in other regions. The first category includes the following organisms: The rare and common Indo-Pacific seaweed Codium arabicum (Lebanese coasts), the acari Thalassarachna affinis (Marmara Sea), and the non-indigenous nudibranch Flabellina rubrolineata, which has been found in several areas of the Aegean Sea. In addition, the rare sea slug Thecacera pennigera (Mar Piccolo of Taranto), the fangtooth moray Enchelycore anatina (National Marine Park of Zakynthos, Ionian Sea), the carangid Seriola fasciata (Gulf of Antalya), Lagocephalus sceleratus (SE Ionian Sea), the reticulated leatherjacket Stephanolepis diaspros (Slovenia, N. Adriatic Sea), the marbled stingray, Dasyatis marmorata (NE Levantine), the starry smooth-hound Mustelus asterias (Iskenderun Bay, NE Mediterranean), the cephalopod Ommastrephes bartramii (Ionian Sea) have also been reported. The Atlantic crab Dyspanopeus sayi has expanded to many Italian areas and the blue crab Callinectes sapidus to a lake in N. Greece and in the S. Adriatic Sea. Finally, Farfantepenaeus aztecus has been found in the Ionian Sea, thus showing its wide expansion in the Mediterranean. The larval stages of Faccionella oxyrhyncha have been found, after many years, in the Aegean Sea and the first report of an existence on intersexual acari Litarachna duboscqi in Split (Adriatic Sea) was reported.

“…Specifically, only 12 individuals of F. aztecus were caught in the Gulf of Antalya during 2010 (Deval et al, 2010), while its abundance has increased in southern Turkey within 3 years (Gulf of İskenderun to the east and Finike to the west), where around 1600 individuals were caught (Gökoğlu and Özvarol, 2013). In addition, the presence of F. aztecus has also been recorded recently elsewhere in the Mediterranean Sea-for example, in the Adriatic Sea, e.g., Montenegro (Markovic et al, 2014), the Ionian Sea, off Corfu Island (Kapiris and Apostolidis, 2014), and the northern Aegean Sea (Nikolopoulou et al, 2013).…”

From November 2013 to March 2014, 14 female specimens of the nonindigenous penaeid species northern brown shrimp Farfantepenaeus aztecus were caught in Thermaikos Gulf and Nestos estuaries (northern Aegean Sea), as well as one male in the Argolikos Gulf (central Aegean Sea) and 1 female in the Ionian Sea, further confirming their expansion range in the eastern Mediterranean Sea. Along with the external morphology of the specimens, sequencing analysis of the 16S rDNA gene of mtDNA confirmed the species identification. Recognition of large mature individuals strongly supports that the already established species in the Greek seas could be efficiently reproduced.

Abstract: A single adult female specimen of the Northern brown shrimp, Farfantepenaeus aztecus, a species native to the western Atlantic coasts, was caught in Boka kotorska bay (southern Adriatic Sea) on 19 September 2013. This is the first record of this alien species in the Adriatic Sea.
