oriental trumpeter whiting
The oriental trumpeter whiting, ''Sillago aeolus'', is a widely distributed species of benthic inshore fish in the smelt-whiting family. The species ranges from east Africa to Japan, inhabiting much if the southern Asian and Indonesian coastlines. Its morphology is very similar to other species within the genus ''Sillago'', with a long, compressed body and silvery overall colour. It can be distinguished from its relatives by colour patterns and particularly swim bladder morphology, which helps define most species of ''Sillago''. ''S aeolus'' is a benthic predator, consuming a variety of crustaceans and polychaetes. As with most members of the smelt whiting family, it is important to small coastal fisheries in various areas of its range.
==Taxonomy and naming==
The oriental trumpeter whiting is one of 29 species in the genus ''Sillago'', which is one of three divisions of the smelt whiting family Sillaginidae. The smelt-whitings are Perciformes in the suborder Percoidei.
The oriental trumpeter whiting was first officially identified and named ''Sillago aeolus'' by Jordan and Evermann in 1902 from the holotype collected in Taiwan, after a number of taxonomists had misidentified the species as ''Sillago macrolepis'' (Bleeker) or ''Sillago maculata'' (Quoy & Gaimard, 1824). ''S. aeolus'' has a number of common names in different countries, with the most common, oriental trumpeter whiting derived from the fact the species has a similar colour and pattern to the Trumpeter whiting, ''Sillago maculata''. Other names commonly applied to ''S. aeolus'' include Hoshi-gisu (Japan), Ebi (Malaysia), Oso-so (Philippines) and 'Asuhos'.
