The first living specimen of the Rock goby ( Gobius paganellus ) in Dutch coastal waters is reported. It was found in the Eastern Scheldt in June 2005. The earliest records of this species in the North Sea date back to 1991 in the Thames estuary. In 1997 G. paganellus was caught on a stony seabed on the Belgian continental flat.
