Sixteen fish species collected from rivers flowing into Sagami Bay and from coastal areas of the bay were briefly described to monitor global warming and to better understand the effects of rising sea surface temperatures in Sagami Bay. Six tropical–subtropical or tropicaltemperate species, i.e., Hippichthys penicillus, Hippichthys spicifer, Ophieleotris sp. 1, Tridentiger kuroiwae, Bathygobius hongkongensis and Favonigobius reichei, were newly reported from Kanagawa Prefecture. Two rare temperate species, Lates japonicus and Eutaeniichthys gilli, were recorded for the first time from the rivers flowing into Sagami Bay. The occurrence of Ellochelon vaigiensis in Shimoda represents a new record from Sagami Bay and the northernmost record for the species. The following seven tropical species, Microphis brachyurus brachyurus, Lutjanus argentimaculatus, Lutjanus fulvus, Kuhlia marginata, Callogobius tanegasimae, Drombus sp. and Scatophagus argus, were also noted.
