Abstrakt: The presence of ladyfish Elops smithi in Patagonian waters is a new addition to the ichthyological fauna of the Argentinean Sea. This record represents a southward extension of its known distribution by 8 degrees of latitude, ~1500 km. It is another example of the more frequent arrival of tropical or subtropical fish species to Patagonian waters. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
