Abstract:

Recorded landings from artisanal fishermen of the Lipsi island complex, Greece, were analysed for abundance of IAS ichthyofauna. Seriola fasciata, Siganus rivulatus, Siganus luridus, Sargocentron rubrum and Etrumeus teres were landed. Siganidae sp. comprised 18% of the total catch biomass.The current study confirmed the presence of these IAS at a local scale.
