Abstract
Pinna nobilis is distributed in the northwest area of the Mediterranean and the Aegean Sea. In this study, on 9 September 2020, one specimen of Pinna nobilis, the pen shell, was observed during scuba diving at a depth of 16 m off Samandag coast (36.259444° N, 35.810111° E), the northeastern Mediterranean Sea. In this study, we observed for the first time P. nobilis from the Mediterranean Coast of Turkey, the Samandag coast. In this region, the presence of P. nobilis has never been previously recorded, and this new record confirms the presence of a new location in the Mediterranean Sea.
