Parablennius ruber (Valenciennes, 1836) View in CoL
A total of nine Portuguese blennies, Blenniidae , were observed and photographed while scuba diving around offshore islands in Finistère (Brittany, France). The two first individuals, measuring about 12 cm long ( Fig. 6C View Figure 6 ), were observed by F. Roche on 5 Aug. 2018 in the Bay of Lampaul (Ouessant, Celtic Sea), at 48.4476°N, – 5.1324°W at 15 and 24 m depth ( Roche et al., 2019b) GoogleMaps . Two additional individuals were observed on 15 Aug. 2018 in the same locality, at 48.4474°N, – 5.1350°W, at 20-25 m depth GoogleMaps . Another individual, about 8-9 cm TL ( Fig. 6D View Figure 6 ), was observed by L. Schweyer on 4 Sep. 2018 at Les Trois Cheminées off Molène Archipelago (Celtic Sea), at 48.3075°N, – 4.8837°W at 20 m depth GoogleMaps . Yet another individual, about 12 cm long, was observed by P. Thiriet on 17 Sep. 2018 on Basse Astan (off western Batz Island, English Channel), 48.7098°N, – 3.9032°E, at 8 m depth GoogleMaps . Two other individuals, about 9 and 10 cm long ( Fig. 6E View Figure 6 ), were observed by J.P. Renoult on 4 Oct. 2018 in the Bay of Lampaul , at 48.4449°N, – 5.1345°W at 29-30 m GoogleMaps
valid species based on records from the Azores ( Almeida, 1979). The species was observed again in 2004 in Brittany, its type locality ( Anonymous, 2005a, 2005b, 2005c). Four other specimens, 7-10 cm TL, were recorded in 2016-2017, at Linuen and An-Hournaou off Concarneau, at Île-de-Sein and at Ouessant (Finistère, France) ( Hanon et al., 2017; Turpin et al., 2017). The species has been observed 26 times from the British Isles in 1995-2006 and the increased number of records in Brittany and the continental north Atlantic waters could be related to the development of scuba-diving as suggested by Goodwin and Picton (2007).
A De Buen’s goby, Gobiidae ( Fig. 7A View Figure 7 ), was observed and photographed by M. Duhau while scuba diving on 6 Aug. 2018 ( Duhau et al., 2019a). It was observed on coarse calcareous algae debris, at Roche Serpent (Saint-Raphaël, Var, Mediterranean Sea, France), at 43.4071°N, 6.8495°E, at 40 m depth. The individual was about 3 cm TL. The species is uncommonly recorded and had never been observed and photographed in its habitat in France GoogleMaps .
Buenia jeffreysii (Günther, 1867)
Two Jeffrey’s goby, Gobiidae ( Fig. 7B View Figure 7 ), were collected on 23 Oct. 2018 during the EVHOE survey, using a bottom trawl. They were collected at Station W 0542 (Southern Bay of Biscay, France), at 45.7746 / 45.7455 °N, – 3.3 90 9 / – 3. 38 4 1 ° W, at 141.6/ 143.5 m depth. The fresh specimens were 37 and 39 mm TL. Recorded by S.P. Iglésias. The species is uncommonly recorded in the Bay of Biscay GoogleMaps .
