Here, we present the first record of a fish invasion into the Mediterranean's aphotic zone, reporting nine specimens of the arrow bulleye\n                    <jats:italic>Priacanthus sagittarius<\/jats:italic>\n                    captured at a depth of 420\u2009m on the sandy continental slope off the Israeli coast. DNA\u2010based analysis of stomach contents identified deep\u2010sea prey taxa, providing robust evidence that this non\u2010indigenous species is actively feeding within the deep benthic environments of the Mediterranean Sea. In addition, analyses of genetic population structure indicate a downward expansion of local continental populations and reveal cryptic diversity between native populations along the Indian and West Pacific Ocean and the Red Sea and invasive Mediterranean populations. The potential ecological consequences of colonizing and exploiting new deep\u2010sea habitats are also explored.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/jfb.70603","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,3]],"date-time":"2026-08-03T00:55:19Z","timestamp":1785718519000},"page":"2288-2293","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Invasives in the dark: An established population of the arrow bulleye\n                    <i>Priacanthus sagittarius<\/i>\n                    on the aphotic continental slope of the eastern Mediterranean"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"109","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4834-3091","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Nir","family":"Stern","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Israel Oceanographic and Limnological Research  Haifa Israel"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1856-1976","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sophia","family":"Nazarova","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Israel Oceanographic and Limnological Research  Haifa Israel"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,2]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_9_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1051\/alr\/2020012"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/oik.09650"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.12681\/mms.41312"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3391\/MBI.2021.12.4.02"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.cub.2017.02.046"},{"issue":"1","key":"e_1_2_9_7_1","first-page":"15","article-title":"Additional record of Priacanthus sagittarius Starnes, 1988 from the northeastern Mediterranean coast of Turkey","volume":"3","author":"Erg\u00fcden D.","year":"2023","journal-title":"Advances Underwater Sciences"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3389\/FMARS.2024.1398037\/TEXT"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/S41200-016-0010-0\/TABLES\/1"},{"issue":"5","key":"e_1_2_9_10_1","first-page":"294","article-title":"DNA primers for amplification of mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I from diverse metazoan invertebrates","volume":"3","author":"Folmer O.","year":"1994","journal-title":"Molecular Marine Biology and Biotechnology"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_11_1","unstructured":"Froese R.andD.Pauly.
