Abstract The freshwater jellyfish Craspedacusta sowerbyi was found regularly at Topçam Reservoir, Aydın province, Turkey, between June 1999 and June 2000. It is thought that the species has been unintentionally introduced into the reservoir together with fishes. This is one of the first records for Turkey.
