Abstract
This paper revised the presence of lethrinid fishes in the Egyptian Red Sea waters and discussed the first record of the black nape wide-eye bream, Gymnocranius satoi, forktail large-eye bream G. elongatus and G. oblongus. Family Lethrinidae is presented in the Egyptian Red Sea by 14 species and the three Gymnocranius species never recorded before in the area. In January 2022, 5 specimens of G. satoi, 2 specimens of G. elongatus and 7 ones of G. oblongus were recorded in the miscellaneous catch at Shalatein landing site on the Red Sea (23°09'08.10"N, 35°36'50.75"E), Egypt. The collected specimens represent the first record of the three species in the Egyptian Red sea waters. The specimens of G. satoi have a total length ranging from 24.3 and 29.4 cm and weighed 202 to 350 g total weight. The two specimens of G. elongatus have 28.8 and 38.5 cm TL and weighed 370 and 750 g. While the G. oblongus total length varied between 24.3 and 27.7 cm and weighed 202 to 290 g. The specimens’ morphometric measurements and meristic counts were described. These new findings increased the number of Lethrinid species in the Egyptian Red Sea waters to 17 species.
