DESCRIPTIONS OF A NEW PLESIOPID FISH FROM SOUTH-WESTERN AUSTRALIA, WITH A DISCUSSION OF THE ZOOGEOGRAPHY OF PARAPLESIOPS

WA Museum Records and Supplements | Updated 1 decade ago

Abstract
Paraplesiops sinclairi sp. novo is described from six specimens from the Archipelago of the Recherche and Lancelin. It is distinguished from the other members of Paraplesiops by the combination of a low lateral line count (29-32) and smooth preopercular margin. The historical events leading to the current distribution of the genus are also discussed.
