Özet

One specimen of the black-bellied angler, Lophius budegassa Spinola, 1807, was caught off Sinop (Black Sea, Turkey) on 8 February 2015 by turbot bottom set net. The specimen weighed 1926.6 g and measured 42.2 cm standard length (SL) and 51.8 cm total length (TL). The specimen sexed as a maturing male with a testicular development stage II. This work has undoubtedly enhanced our knowledge on the recent introduction of the black-bellied angler in the Black Sea.
