Document Type : Original Article

Abstract

Samples of the cuttlefish Sepia officinalis were recorded in the Bitter Lakes at Fayed, Suez canal. The morphology of this cephalopod was given in this study and discussed with previous studies on the same species in other areas of the world. The present study suggests that this species which is common in the Mediterranean sea may reach to the great Bitter lakes of Suez canal through lessepsian anti-lessepsian migration which are mainly demonstrated in Suez Canal.
