Abstract

The article presents data on the first discovery of a new species of pricklebacks (Stichaeidae) for the fauna of Russia in the intertidal zone of Bering Island (Commander Islands), the mosshead warbonnet Chirolophis nugator (Jordan et Williams, 1895). Its specimen, with a total length of 47 mm, was most likely brought to the waters off Bering Island at the pelagic larval stage from the nearby Aleutian Islands by the westward-flowing Aleutian Current.
