Abstract

In this study, we present a taxonomic synthesis and compendium of the diversity and distribution of stonefishes of the genus Minous (Scorpaeniformes: Synanceiidae) from Indian waters, including revised species descriptions, diagnoses, and biometric data from specimens off the coast of Visakhapatnam, central eastern India. A total of 342 Minous specimens (males, females, and juveniles) from Visakhapatnam waters were examined and identified based on external and internal morphology, resulting in the identification of four Minous species: M. coccineus Alcock 1890, M. inermis Alcock 1889, M. monodactylus (Block and Schneider 1801), and M. trachycephalus (Bleeker 1855); the last-named recorded for the first time in Indian coastal waters. Furthermore, the study reports the occurrence of M. inermis (Alcock's scorpionfish) from coastal waters of Visakhapatnam for the first time. Finally, we present a taxonomic key for the identification of the species of Minous present in Indian waters.

印度水域印度太平洋刺鱼属Minous的分类和分布记录(鲉目:刺鱼科)
本文对印度水域Minous属石鱼(scorpaeniforma: Synanceiidae)的多样性和分布进行了分类综合和概述,包括对印度中东部Visakhapatnam海岸标本的物种描述、诊断和生物特征数据的修订。对来自维沙卡帕特南水域的342只小型标本(雄性、雌性和幼鱼)进行了外部和内部形态学检查和鉴定,鉴定出4种小型物种:M. coccineus Alcock 1890、M. inermis Alcock 1889、M. monodactylus (Block and Schneider 1801)和M. trachycephalus (Bleeker 1855);最后一个名字是第一次在印度沿海水域记录。此外,该研究还首次报道了在维萨卡帕特南沿海水域出现的M. inermis (Alcock's scorpionfish)。最后,我们提出了在印度水域中存在的Minous物种的分类关键。
