Even the ancient Greeks held the yellow-striped mullus – or, in short, the mullus – in high regard. With rising sea temperatures, it has been appearing on the Swedish west coast in autumn for several years now. However, spawning and reproduction have never been recorded in Swedish waters. But there are many indications that the mullet can now be considered a resident and reproducing species. Many shallow bays along the west coast have been swarming with its fry this summer.
