ChubFAQs (386 words)
I captured in Mediterranean 2 fishes of never seen species in this Sea.
I think can be of family of Kyphosidae, but I'm not certain of it.
Please go to fishbase.org on the Net and key in either the family Kyphosidae OR marine fishes under "Fishes by Region" under the area "Mediterranean", then either re-sort by family or look under the genus (alphabetically) "Kyphosus"...
