Boutan's whiting
Boutan's whiting, ''Sillago boutani'', is a poorly understood species of coastal marine fish of the smelt-whiting family Sillaginidae that inhabits the waters of the Gulf of Tonkin and south eastern China. Like most sillaginids, the species inhabits areas populated with a number of other whiting species of similar appearance, causing the species to often be misidentified as the well known ''Sillago sihama'', and for this reason its biology is poorly known. The species is taken by seine net in Vietnam and is often exported to Japan.
==Taxonomy and naming==
Boutan's whiting is one of 29 species of the genus ''Sillago'', one of 3 genera in the smelt-whiting family Sillaginidae, a division of the suborder Percoidea.
The species was first validly described by Pellegrin in 1905 from the holotype specimen collected from Bai de Hatan, Along, in northern Vietnam. In a major review of the Sillaginidae in 1985, McKay proposed the three subgenera of ''Sillago'', of which ''S. boutani'' fell into the 'Parasillago'. This created the synonym of ''Sillago (?Parasillago) boutani'', which is still used, depending on if the subgenera are accepted. All members of the Sillago may have a name in the format ''Sillago (subgenus) species''.
In 1933, Fowler noted the fin ray and lateral line scale counts are very similar to the now invalid ''S. bostockii'', a claim which was dismissed by McKay (1985) on the basis of vertebrae numbers.〔
