Shortnose whiting : ウィキペディア英語版 | Shortnose whiting
The shortnose whiting, ''Sillago arabica'', is a recently described and poorly known species of inshore marine fish of the smelt whiting family Sillaginidae that inhabits only the Persian Gulf. ''S. arabica'' is similar in morphology to other sillaginids, although has a distinctive shortened snout which gives the species its common name. This species is of no current interest to local fisheries, although beach seines may take minor amounts of this species. ==Taxonomy and naming== The shortnose whiting belongs to the genus ''Sillago'', a subdivision of the smelt whiting family Sillaginidae. The Sillaginidae are in the suborder Percoidei, a division of the Perciformes. The species was identified and named ''Sillago arabica'' by Roland McKay and L.J. McCarthy in 1989, after examining the holotype which was initially collected in Tanajib Bay in the Persian Gulf during 1982. The authors also termed the common name 'shortnose whiting' for the species, as its uniquely short snout is a key identifying feature in the field.
