This paper aimed to present the first record of Pterois miles (Bennet, 1828) off the Syrian coast (Eastern Mediterranean). Two specimens (159; 206 mm SL) were captured in Syrian waters between Lattakia and Jableh in 28th September 2015 and 10th December 2015. This first record of common lionfish Pterois miles in the Syrian coast could confirm the occurrence of this species in the Levant Basin (eastern Mediterranean). This is the fifth record of the species reported to date in the region. These records are not sufficient to state that the species is substantially established in the area, but investigations are rapidly needed to avoid unfavorable consequences on local environment and economy.

Research summary
تهدف هذه الورقة إلى تقديم أول تسجيل لسمكة الأسد الشائعة (Pterois miles) قبالة الساحل السوري (شرق البحر الأبيض المتوسط). تم اصطياد عينتين (159 و206 ملم طول قياسي) في المياه السورية بين اللاذقية وجبلة في 28 سبتمبر 2015 و10 ديسمبر 2015. هذا التسجيل الأول لسمكة الأسد الشائعة في الساحل السوري يمكن أن يؤكد ظهور هذا النوع في حوض الشام (شرق البحر الأبيض المتوسط). هذا هو التسجيل الخامس لهذا النوع في المنطقة حتى الآن. هذه التسجيلات ليست كافية لإثبات أن النوع قد استقر بشكل كبير في المنطقة، ولكن هناك حاجة ماسة إلى تحقيقات سريعة لتجنب العواقب غير المواتية على البيئة المحلية والاقتصاد.
Critical review
دراسة نقدية: على الرغم من أهمية هذه الدراسة في توثيق أول ظهور لسمكة الأسد الشائعة في الساحل السوري، إلا أن هناك بعض النقاط التي تحتاج إلى مزيد من التوضيح. أولاً، يجب أن تكون هناك دراسات أكثر شمولاً لتحديد مدى انتشار هذا النوع وتأثيره على البيئة المحلية. ثانياً، يجب أن تتضمن الدراسة بيانات أكثر تفصيلاً حول الظروف البيئية التي قد تكون ساهمت في ظهور هذا النوع في المنطقة. وأخيراً، يجب أن تكون هناك توصيات واضحة حول كيفية التعامل مع هذا الغزو البيولوجي المحتمل لتجنب العواقب السلبية على البيئة والاقتصاد المحلي.
Questions related to the research
  1. ما هو الهدف الرئيسي من هذه الدراسة؟

    الهدف الرئيسي هو تقديم أول تسجيل لسمكة الأسد الشائعة (Pterois miles) قبالة الساحل السوري وتأكيد ظهورها في حوض الشام (شرق البحر الأبيض المتوسط).

  2. ما هي الطرق المستخدمة في اصطياد العينات؟

    تم اصطياد العينتين باستخدام شباك الجر في قاع رملي على عمق حوالي 50 متر.

  3. ما هي النتائج الرئيسية التي توصلت إليها الدراسة؟

    توصلت الدراسة إلى أن سمكة الأسد الشائعة قد ظهرت لأول مرة في الساحل السوري، مما يؤكد استمرار ظهورها في حوض الشام، ولكن لا يمكن اعتبار هذه التسجيلات كافية لإثبات انتشارها بشكل فعلي في المنطقة.

  4. ما هي التوصيات التي قدمتها الدراسة؟

    أوصت الدراسة بإجراء تحقيقات سريعة واحترازية لتجنب النتائج السلبية البيئية والاقتصادية المحتملة من انتشار سمكة الأسد الشائعة في المنطقة.

The "Middle East" is one of the most tense regions of the world, and these tensions linked mainly to the existence of the Zionist entity as an outside intity cruel implanted in the heart of the region, and which seeks to exploit and steal any land a nd wealth lies in his hands. And with the discoveries of reserves the vast gas and oil in the levant basin escalated tensions in the region after Israeli efforts to exploit these reserves and stealing these resourses without taking and this led to the outbreak of differences bilateral and multilateral conflicts of interests among the countries in the region which allows Israel to play a key role in these issues, especially the Lebanese – Israeli conflict ,the Turkish – Cyprios case which Israel is third party in such conflicts.
In the present study,a total of 50 individuals ofsurmulletMullussurmuletuswere examined forexoparasites infections. The specimens were collected from the Syrian marine waters (Latakia, Jablah) between 15/10/2014 and 30/10/2015. The skin, mouth cavi ty, nostrils and gills of each specimen were examined. One parasite species belonging to Monogenea,Grubea cochlear was identified for the first time in the Syrian marine waters and in Mediterranean Sea. This species, memberof the family Mazocraeidae,was isolated from the gills. The number of infected fish was 20 fish out of 50 sampled fish; withprevalence of 40% and Intensity of 5 parasite/ Fish.
This paper aimed to present additional records of Honeycomb stingray Himantura uarnak (Forskal, 1775) (Chondrichthyes: Dasyatidae) off the Syrian coast (Eastern Mediterranean). Two specimens were captured in Syrian waters (Tartous coast) 35º 55’ 3 1”E and 34º 42’ 40’’ N. The first specimen was an adult female, and the second an adult male; they measured 1078 mm and 840 mm disk width, and weighed 31.450 kg and 15.580 kg, respectively. Morphometric measurements were recorded to the nearest millimeter, and reported as percentage of the disk width (%DW). Pieces of skin and tail were deposited in the Ichthyological collection of the Marine Sciences Laboratory, Agriculture Faculty of Tishreen University, Syria.
SST satellite images analysis has provided us a new description of the surface circulation in the eastern basin of the Mediterranean Sea. It showed many characteristics for a lot of mesoscale eddies. In this study, the SST analysis is focalised on the upwelling structure showing by images, in the eastern basin of the Mediterranean Sea, which has an important biological reflection at the marine environment. We have analyzed images for different periods to identifier this phenomena's places and this will be help us in situ nutrient observations.
During the study of Molluscs/Cephalopods and their diversity and distributionin the Syrian marine waters; the presence of squid Ommastrephaes bartramii has recordedfor the first time locally, three individuals were collected during March and April of 2016, twoindividuals from the Ras Al-basset coast and one from Jablehcoast, at depths ranging from 40-130m, the required morphometric were done.mantle lengths has ranged from 36.6 to 50.3 cm and 12,1-19cm widethe, fin is in the size of 17,3-23,3cm,and 14,3- 16 cm wide, the proliferative arm is in the range size of 46.5 to 73 cm long. the individuals weights vary between 2555,80-3954g. Anatomy of the samples was performed also. The gonad vary between 20,6-41,12g, and the digestive gland weight ranged between 86,68-102,25g, has been observed all of the three individual were females..
