Abstract
Two species of Echinodermata were reported for the first time from the deep Libyan waters. The goose foot starfish Anseropoda placenta (Pennant, 1977) and the common brittle star Ophiothrix fragilis (Abildgaard in O.F. Müller, 1789) were observed in Tripoli, Libyan waters by Libyan fishers. Subsequently, they are collected by trawling in the deep waters. This report discusses details of these new observations.
