Gangetic whiting
The Gangetic whiting, ''Sillaginopsis panijus'' (also known as the flathead sillago), is a species of inshore marine and estuarine fish of the smelt-whiting family, Sillaginidae. It is the most distinctive Asian member of the family due to its flattened head and trailing dorsal fins. Although first described in 1822, it was not placed in its own genus until 1861 when Theodore Gill erected ''Sillaginopsis'', a genus which is still monotypic. Gangetic whiting are of minor commercial importance along the Southeast coast of the Asian continent where it inhabits protected areas.
==Taxonomy and naming==
The Gangetic whiting is the only species of the genus ''Sillaginopsis'', which itself is one of three genera the family Sillaginidae, containing all the smelt whitings. The Sillaginidae are part of the Percoidei, a suborder of the order Perciformes.
The Gangetic whiting was originally named ''Cheilodipterus panijus'' in 1822 by Francis Buchanan-Hamilton from a holotype taken from the Ganges estuary in India. The species was further examined by Gill in 1861 in the first review of the family, entitled "Synopsis of the Sillaginoids", which lead to the creation of the genus ''Sillaginopsis''. This new classification changed the binomial name to the currently accepted ''Sillaginopsis panijus''.〔 〕
