First distributional record of Parascolopsis akatamae Miyamoto, McMahan, & Kaneko, 2020, a dwarf monocle bream (Perciformes, Nemipteridae), from Indian waters

Intraspecific phylogeography of the Japanese threadfin bream, Nemipterus japonicus (Perciformes: Nemipteridae), from the Persian Gulf and Indo-West Pacific: a preliminary study based on mitochondrial DNA sequence

The Japanese threadfin bream, Nemipterus japonicus, the most abundant and crucially economic Nemipterus species is widespread throughout the Indo-West Pacific. The species has been studied widely for various aspects but genetic studies are scanty. This preliminary study contributes to the species phylogeography through the study of the genetic diversity and historical demography of N. japonicus...

Two new species of Cabillus (Perciformes: Gobiidae) and the first record of Cabillus macrophthalmus from the Western Indian Ocean.

Two new species of the gobiid genus Cabillus, C. nigromarginatus sp. nov. and Cabillus nigrostigmus sp. nov. are described. Cabillus nigromarginatus (from Rodrigues, Western Indian Ocean) is distinguished from congeners by having 18-20 pectoral-fin rays; predorsal area naked; two scales with enlarged ctenii ventrally and dorsally at the caudal-fin base; head with anterior and posterior oculosca...

First Record of Bonefish, Albula vulpes, from Mississippi Coastal Waters

First record of the Indo-Pacific slender ponyfish Equulites elongatus (Günther, 1874) (Perciformes: Leiognathidae) from Turkey

Eight specimens of the slender ponyfish Equulites elongatus were collected, by otter trawl, between 6 December 2014 and 18 April 2015 from Turkish waters, off Mersin. This constitutes the second record of this species in the Mediterranean Sea and is about 530 km distant from the site of first record (Tel Aviv, Israel).
