Abstract
The Red Sea (Lessepsian) migrant fish, the arrow bulleye, Priacanthus sagittarius, and the spotbelly batfish, Platax teira, are recorded for the second time from the Mediterranean, suggesting the establishment of new populations. The record of another Lessepsian migrant, the spiny blaassop, Tylerius spinosissimus from Israel, constitutes a considerable extension of its distribution range in the Mediterranean.
