Scientific Note Confirmed occurrence of the longjaw snake eel, Ophisurus serpens (Osteichthyes: Ophichthidae) in Tunisian waters (Central Mediterranean) MOHAMED MOURAD BEN AMOR 1 , JAMILA BEN SOUISSI 2 , MOHAMED BEN SALEM 1 & CHRISTIAN CAPAPÉ 3 1 Unité de Recherches Zoologie et Ecologie des Milieux aquatiques, Faculté des Sciences de Tunis, Université de Tunis El Manar, Le Belvédère, 2092 Tunis, Institut National des Sciences et Technologies de la Mer, port de pêche, 2060 La Goulette, Tunisia.

The record of a juvenile female Ophisurus serpens in a Tunis Southern Lagoon confirms the occurrence of the species in Tunisian waters. This record constituted the southernmost extension range of O. serpens in the Mediterranean Sea, but also the first record of the species in a perimediterranean lagoon. Key words: Description, morphometric data, meristic counts, brackish area. Resumen. Confirmación de la ocurrencia de la anguila Ophisurus serpens (Osteichthyes: Ophichthidae) en aguas de Túnez (Mediterráneo Central). El registro de una hembra juvenil de Ophisurus serpens encontrada en una laguna al sur de Tunéz confirma la ocurrencia de la especie en aguas de la Túnez, constituyendo la extensión más al sur del rango de la especie en el Mar Mediterráneo y representando el primer registro de la especie en una laguna perimediterránea. Palabras clave: descripción, datos morfométricos, conteo merístico, ambient estuarino The longjaw snake eel, Ophisurus serpens (Linnaeus 1758) is widely distributed, reported off the eastern Atlantic coast, from the Bay of Biscay (Cappetta et al. 1985) to South Africa (McCosker & Castle 1986), including Madeira (Bauchot 1986). The species is also reported elsewhere, such as in western Indian Ocean (Southern Mozambique to South Africa) and western Pacific (Japan and Australasia). Ophisurus serpens is known in western and central Mediterranean marine (Tortonese 1970; Bauchot 1986). Additionally, the species is considered as very rare in the Adriatic Sea where it lives in marine, brackish and estuarine waters between 30 and 400 m depth, on sandy and sandymuddy bottom (Dulcic et al. 2005), buried with only the head exposed, looking for preys. The longjaw snake eel was reported off the Tunisian coast by Lubet & Azzouz (1969) in the Gulf of Tunis (northern Tunisia). However, no specimen was available for confirmation according to Bradaï (2000). Additionally, the species was not reported elsewhere in Tunisian waters (Bradaï et al. 2004). Investigations regularly conducted in Tunis Southern Lagoon (Fig. 1 and 2) since 2003 allow the capture of one specimen of the longjaw snake eel. Description and the first main morphometric measurements made on a Tunisian specimen are presented in this note. Additionally, the distribution of O. serpens in both Tunisian and Mediterranean waters is commented in this paper. The specimen was collected on 24 May Pan-American Journal of Aquatic Sciences (2009), 4(3): 251-254
