Fishes of family Apogonidae popularly known as cardinalfishes are of high ecological importance owing to its trophic role. Though
the presence of apogonids from the coastal waters of the northeastern Arabian sea are reflected in diets of predatory fishes of the
region and bycatch of trawls, limited reports are available on species composition. Three species namely Apogonichthyoides
pseudotaeniatus (Gon, 1986), Jaydia queketti (Gilchrist, 1903) and Jaydia lineata (Temmink& Schlegal, 1842) have been reported
for the first time from the region, adding to the apogonids diversity of the region. Ostorhinchus fasciatus (White, 1790) is also
reported for the first time from the coastal waters of Gujarat. Morphometric assessment of the four species revealed several
discriminating attributes capable of separating the species from each other.
