Two adult and one juvenile specimen of Thalassoma pavo were caught in the areas of Rogoznica (Islet Svilan) and Primošten (Islets Grbavac, Lukovnjak and Maslinovik) in the eastern Adriatic in July and August 2001. This record extends the distibution of this species northward in the Adriatic Sea. Visual censuses were also conducted in shallow waters, where the bulk of juveniles and adults of this species were registered and encountered.
