Abstract
A gastropod species characterised by bristles was observed at a depth of 6 m during a dive conducted in October 2022 in a rocky and gravelly area in Göynük town (coordinates 36°39'1.72' N; 30°33'35.29' E) in Phaselis territory. This gastropod, which has not been recorded in the region before, was identified as Monoplex parthenopeus (Salis Marschlins, 1793). This new species contributes to the marine biodiversity of the Gulf of Antalya.
