Abstract
The present study reports the first record of two marine fish species namely the black-stripe sweeper Pempheris schwenkii Bleeker, 1855 and the black-edge sweeper Pempheris mangula Cuvier, 1829, of the family Pempheridae from Gopalpur-on Sea, Odisha coast, India. Although, we find a number of fish samples of both the species, still there is no evidence that both the species have established a breeding population in marine waters of Gopalpur coast. Therefore, at present both the species must be regarded as casual rather than native species.
