Biology, Feeding, and Habitat Preferences of Cadenat's Rockfish, <I>Scorpaena Loppei</I> (Actinopterygii: Scorpaeniformes: Scorpaenidae), in the Balearic Islands (Western Mediterranean)

“…In the eastern Mediterranean it is considered a rare species (Filiz et al 2010), reported from the Aegean Sea, Israeli waters (Papaconstantinou 1988, Golani 2005, and recently also Turkey (Keskin andEryilmaz 2008, Filiz et al 2010).
