Abstract/Description: | The family Scorpaenidae includes 209 species of fishes that are commonly called Scorpion fishes or rock fishes. Out of the 209 species only 18 have been described by Indian researchers so far and along Karnataka coast seven species have been recorded. The Genus Parapterois has two species viz. P. heterura and P. macrura. Though the P. heterura is widely distributed in the Indo-Pacific, P. macrura has so far been located only in the Malabar- Mangalore coast of Karnataka. Mandrytsa (2001) recorded a poorly known scorpion fish, Pterois macrura Alcock, 1896, originally described from the Malabar Coast off Calicut, west coast of India, as a second species of Parapterois and provided a key to the two species. |
