First record of Boulenger's anthias Sacura boulengeri (Heemstra 1973) in the Red Sea. Issue 1 (1st November 2022) - Nunes Peinemann, Viktor
Abstract: In November 2020, we observed several individuals and collected one juvenile of an unidentified anthiadine fish (Serranidae) between depths of 250 and 307 m near vertical walls of rocky reefs in the northern Red Sea. Further morphological and molecular analyses revealed that the collected specimen matches Sacura boulengeri, a species previously reported only from the Gulf of Oman to India.
