Here we provide an updated review of both native and non-indigenous ichthyofauna occurring in the waters Libya, one largest less studied marine areas Mediterranean basin. With respect to most recent information, list Libyan bony fishes was with 104 species for a total 304 listed taxa. Out these species, 271 are native, 6 endemic Mediterranean, 22 non indigenous Lessepsian origin 5 range expanding taxa from Gibraltar.

This paper provides length–weight relationships estimated for 5 Lessepsian fish species (four families), economically important to the local community, of coast Benghazi-Libya; namely: Fistularia Commersonii, Saurida undosquamis, Siganus luridus, rivulatus and Scomberomorus commerson. The regressions all were found be significant. study presents first estimation length-weight relationship some inhabiting coastal area southern Mediterranean Sea.

African catfish Clarias gariepinus (Burchell) fingerlings (3.16–3.92 g initial body weight) were investigated for 30 days in four different groups using amounts of l-ascorbic acid (AA) and iron (supplied as FeC6H5O7) their feedings. Diet 1 (control): no addition AA or iron; diet 2 (H-AA/FE): high (600 mg kg−1) low (218 3 (H-HE/AA): (364 (200 AA; an unfed group, which was only 15 due to mortality. The live weight gain, feed intake, specific growth rate (SGR; % day−1) conversion (FCR) measured...

The feeding habits of the exotic fish Fistularia commersonii off coast Benghazi, Libya were investigated. A total 189 specimens collected throughout year 2012-2013. mean length (TL) and weight was 99.08±6.45cm 545.33±116 g, respectively. condition factor (K) ranged between 0.7 0.8. Fish found in large quantities (87%) stomach blue-spotted cornet fish. While crustaceans (2%) mollusks (1%). results showed also that F. feeds on prey from diverse habitats as well depths.
