Özet

Within a surveillance programme for the detection of invasive alien species, many benthic samples were randomly collected from several portslocated in the inner and middle parts of Izmir Bay. A total of four sponge species (Sycon raphanus, Sycon ciliatum, Paraleucilla magna and Dysidea fragilis)were found on the artificial hard substrata. Paraleucilla magna, which is being newly recorded from the Aegean coast of Turkey, is an invasive alien speciesand very abundant almost at all ports, covering maximally 35% of surfaces sampled. The morphological and distributional features of these species aredescribed.
