The commercial trawler named “İdris Reis” caught a fish species that they had never seen or known before while catching shrimp in deep waters at the 36°25'04" N 30°37'17" E coordinates Gulf of Antalya on 04.04.2022. The species of fish caught was identified as Zu cristatus (Bonelli, 1819). With this study, one more species was added to the Gulf of Antalya fish fauna.
