Description

Acipenser sturio Linnaeus, 1758

Remarks. This anadromous species is distributed in the Mediterranean and is listed in FishBase by Muus & Dahlstr̂m (1978) as being from Syria. Recent studies, however, have not recorded this species in Syria (Saad, 2005). The existence of the species must be clarified.
