A first Pompano, Carangidae ( Fig. 5D View Figure 5 ), was collected on 7 Sep. 2018 by the sport fisherman Mr Christophe Thépaut with a line from a kayak. It was collected in the Aulne River mouth, close to Landévennec (Finistère, France), at about 48.29°N, – 4.26°W at the surface over 10 m depth. The specimen measured about 40 cm TL. A second specimen ( Fig. 5E View Figure 5 ) was collected on 1 Oct. 2018 by the sport fisherman Mr Gil Moreau (warden of Tristan Island) on his boat Mickaël. It was collected with a trammel net close to Tristan island in the Bay of Douarnenez (Finistère, France), at about 48.11°N, – 4.34°W, at roughly 10 m depth. The specimen measured about 30 cm TL. Recorded by L. Schweyer. This species is uncommon in the Finistère ( Guérin-Ganivet, 1912; Legendre, 1931, 1935), in the Bay of Biscay, and in the northern European Atlantic waters ( Day 1880 -1884; Quéro et al., 1999, 2005, 2007a; Bañón et al., 2008).
