| Abstract |
Muraenesox bagio was identified and described from Dholai fishing harbour on the Gujarat coast, northwest coast of India, marking the first recorded occurrence of this species in the region. Muraenesox bagio, a member of the family Muraenosocidae, shares significant morphological and genetic similarities with its closely related species, Muraenesox cinereus. This report confirms the presence of Muraenesox bagio along the northwest coast of India and provides a comprehensive account of its taxonomy and detailed morphological descriptions. |
