Özet
A specimen of the Red Sea pebble crab, Ixa monodi was collected in 2005 from the Bay of Gokova, on the Aegean coast of Turkey. This species, first collected in the Mediterranean in 1955 from the Bay of Mersin, SE Turkey, is quite common off the Israeli coast. In 1999 the species was collected off Rhodes Island, Greece, and the present record provides evidence of its dispersal in the Aegean Sea.
