Özet
The present paper reports a new capture of bigeye thresher shark, Alopias superciliosus (Lowe, 1839). To date, 9 specimens have been recorded in the area, suggesting that a viable population of this type of shark might be successfully establishing in the area, but other records are needed to confirm this hypothesis. The paper comments on the distribution of the species in the Mediterranean Sea, suggesting that it does not originate from this sea, but is probably a migrant species from the eastern tropical Atlantic or from the Indian Ocean. © 2020, Historical Society of Southern Primorska of Koper.
