MALAYSIA • 3, 14– 16 mm TL;</p> <p>Kedah State, Semeling, Semeling Bridge; 5.680°N, 100.470°E; 17 Jul. 2019; Sébastien Lavoué leg.; USMFC (34) 00020.</p> <p>Identification. A very small fish (TL ≤ 16 mm). Body relatively short; head large dorso-ventrally compressed; trunk and tail laterally compressed; only few large predorsal scales present; opercular scales present; anal fin rays 7; second dorsal fin rays 7 or 8; body color cream with four black bars all extending from mid-dorsal line to mid-ventral line; first bar extending to anterior part of first dorsal fin; second bar extending to anterior part of the second dorsal fin and extending to anterior part of anal fin; front head and snout black; first and second dor- sal fins, anal fin and pectoral fins with black marks.</p> <p>The taxonomy of the genus Brachygobius needs revision (Larson 2001). The combination of morphological characteristics of our specimens seems distinctive, making their identification difficult. Based on the identifi- cation key of Inger (1958), our species resembles to B. kabiliensis in having opercular scales, four black bars, and 7 rays at second dorsal and anal fins. However, the predorsal scale pattern and the shape of the first and sec- ond bars clearly distinguish our specimens from typical specimens of B. kabiliensis (as illustrated by Inger 1958: fig. 19; Huang et al 2013: fig. 1g). In B. kabiliensis, the first bar does not extend to the mid-ventral line, the second bar does not reach the anal fin and the predorsal region seems fully scaled (Inger 1958). We preliminary identified our specimen as B. cf. kabiliensis. Further taxonomic work may show that it is a distinct species.</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/3F11B974FFD9FFE53F289DDEF5E933F6	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

However, the tax- onomy of small species of Ambassis having more than one supraorbital spine needs revision. Ambassis vachellii can easily be distinguished from the two other species of Ambassidae occurring in Merbok river estuary by the unique combination of two characters: interrupted lateral line and 4 or 5 supraorbital spines. Ambassis vachellii is a typical brackish species and the most common species of Ambassidae in the Merbok river estuary and in other brackish environments in this region (e.g., Tongnunui et al. 2002). Its exact distribution in the Indo-West Pacific region is still unknown.</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/3F11B974FFDCFFE23F289CCBF68B34F8	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Zainal Abidin, Norli F.M.A.H. Alshari leg.; USMFC (30) 00007. Identification. A moderate-sized species of Ambassis (maximum TL about 10 cm); body relatively deep, laterally compressed; mouth terminal; continuous lateral line; eye diameter larger than snout length; only 1 supraorbital spine; nasal spine absent; single dorsal fin deeply notched; dorsal fin spines 7; anal fin spines 3; caudal fin deeply forked; body uniformly pale greyish with scattered melanophores; fins mostly translucent, first 2 or 3 dorsal fin spines blackish.</p> <p>Ambassis macracanthus can easily be distinguished from the two other species of Ambassidae occurring in the Merbok river estuary by the unique combination of two characters: continuous lateral line and only one supraorbital spine. Ambassis macracanthus is a brackish species and it occurs in other brackish environments in this region (e.g., Tongnuinui et al. 2002). Its exact distribution in the Indo-West Pacific region is still unknown.</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/3F11B974FFDFFFE23CAA9CD5F25D3422	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Body stout, dorsal and ventral profiles con- vex; marking pattern irregular, complex; dorsum with two black blotches between head and dorsal fin: first large asymetric blotch between pectoral fins, second oval blotch in front of dorsal fin; side with small plain black spots and few large black circles with few large black ring spots: one below the base of dorsal fin, one at base of cau- dal fin and one below the second dorsal blotch; ventrolat- eral surface greyish; pectoral, dorsal and anal fins mostly plain greyish; caudal fin greyish with fainted crossbars.</p> <p>This specimen share marking pattern similarities with Dichotomyctere fluviatilis (Hamilton, 1822),which naturally occurs along the coasts of India, Bangladesh and Myanmar, in having two dorsal, black blotches between head and dorsal fin and the presence of distinct spots nearby the base of dorsal fin, at the base of caudal fin and below the second dorsal blotch (Dekkers 1975). Our specimen also presents difference such as the absence of a third transverse black blotch on the posterior part of the head. More specimens are needed to confidently resolve the taxonomic status of this species.</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/3F11B974FFD3FFEE3F289839F38D32CD	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Maximum TL less than 200 mm (Dekkers 1975). Body stout, dorsal and ventral profiles convex. Dor- sum and upper sides greenish gold with irregular rounded spots of diameter equal to or smaller than eye’s diameter, evenly scattered; ventrolateral surface light whitish; pectoral fins translucent, dorsal and anal fins plain; caudal fin with fainted crossbars (larger specimen).</p> <p>Dichotomyctere nigroviridis (until recently known as Tetraodon nigroviridis; see Igarashi et al. 2013 and Kottelat 2013 for current phylogenetic and nomenclatural information) is an important research model in genetics because of the small size and compact nature of its genome, leading to its complete sequencing early in the</p> <p>21th century (Jaillon et al. 2004). This species is known from this region since the work of Cantor (1849), who described Tetrodon simulans Cantor, 1849 which is currently considered as a junior synonym of D. nigroviridis.</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/3F11B974FFD3FFEF3F289FF3F4283672	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
