| Abstract |
Five new records of opisthobranch molluscs were reported for the first time in Montenegrin waters. Berghia verrucicornis and Doris ocelligera were collected as a bycatch with macroalgal samples, which were further analysed in the laboratory. Other three species: Aglaja tricolorata, Pleurobranchus testudinarius and Eubranchus tricolor, were identified and photographed during underwater visual census performed from 2011 to 2019. The total number of opisthobranchs recorded so far in the Montenegrin part of the Adriatic Sea increased to 76 species. |
