The Indian frogfish distributed from East Africa
and the Persian Gulf east to India and Sri Lanka is a truly
marine species. Frogfish of the family Antennariidae is
distinguished by the presence of three well-developed
dorsal spines, laterally-directed eyes, largemouth and laterally
compressed body. There are no reports of the
occurrence of frogfishes in river Narmada. The present
study confirms the occurrence of Indian frogfish in the
Narmada estuary Gujarat, India, as the first record.
