First record of two species of Echinodermata for Libyan waters
The benthic macro fauna, especially belonging to the phylum Echinodermata, is insufficiently studied in the Libyan waters. Accordingly, there is a gap in knowledge and insufficient data related to this topic. This is due to the lack of comprehensive studies and research dealing with this kind of marine branch. Nevertheless, it is already confirmed the presence of common Echinodermata species in the Libyan waters [1-4]: Arbacia lixula (Linnaeus, 1758), Asterina pancerii (Gasco, 1876), Coscinasterias tenuispina (Lamarck, 1816), Centrostephanus longispinus (Philippi, 1845), the Non-Indigenous Species (NIS) Diadema setosum (Leske, 1778), Echinaster (Echinaster) sepositus (Retzius, 1783), Holothuria (Platyperona) sanctori Delle Chiaje, 1823, Holothuria (Holothuria) tubulosa Gmelin, 1791, Ophidiaster ophidianus, NIS Ophiocoma scolopendrina (Lamarck, 1816), Paracentrotus lividus (Lamarck, 1816). However, Echinodermata species from the Libyan waters remain insufficiently studied. This note reports two species of Echinodermata recorded for the first time from the deep Libyan waters.
