Abstract

A single specimen of the grey triggerfish, Balistes capriscus Gmelin, 1789, was caught by a speargun at 18 m water depth in the vicinity of the Çanakkale Strait in the Turkish Straits System, between the Aegean Sea and the Marmara Sea. Its total length was 57.8 cm and weight was 2270 g. The given size is the maximum observed length for the grey triggerfish, B. capriscus, in the Mediterranean Sea. In addition, this paper also documented the first confirmed record of the grey triggerfish, B. capriscus in the Çanakkale Strait (the Turkish Straits System).
