Seahorses belonging to the family Syngnathidae under the single genus Hippocampus are found throughout the world in shallow, coastal tropical and temperate waters and are more abundant in the Indo-Pacific region. The taxonomy of seahorse is confusing due to limited morphological variation among species, ability to changing their body colour and growing skin filaments to match their surroundings, poor type description and independent designation of the same name for different species. As per Lourie et al. (1999), the standard morphometric and meristic character analysis may clear the taxonomical ambiguity. Recent taxonomic revisions of seahorses have been dwindling in the number of species described. It has been reported that around 70 valid seahorse species exists worldwide (Kuiter, 2000, 2001), while recent publication recognises around 48 species of seahorses (Vincent et al. 2011). Currently, Froece and Pauly (2015) treated 54 species of seahorses as extant in the world. Nevertheless, there are more than 7 species of seahorses reported from India (BOBLME, 2015) of which Hippocampus kuda is one of the predominant species distributed along the southeast and west coast of India. This species is known to be overexploited in an unsustainable manner.Full Text

McCosker’s snake eel, Ophichthus johnmccoskeri, a species of the family Ophichthidae is reported for the first time from Chilika Lagoon, Odisha, India, on the basis of 5 specimens collected during the Chilika expedition from Satapada in the year 1987. The species was recently described from West Bengal coast. The report of the species from Chilika lagoon provides the distributional range extension as well as more morphometric information on the species.Keywords

This paper reports two fish species: Myersina filifer (Valenciennes, 1837) and Yongeichthys nebulosus (Forsskal, 1775) (Gobiiformes: Gobiidae) for the first time from Odisha coast, India. The materials were collected from Aryapalli fish landing centre and Gopalpur beach of Odisha coast. Diagnostic characters of these species are presented to record their occurrence along Odisha coast.Keywords

The current paper adds Intermediate flyingfish, Cheilopogon intermedius Parin, 1961 (Beloniformes: Exocoetidae), as a new record to the ichthyofaunal resource list of Odisha. The fish was caught by the fisherman off Paradip, Odisha, India. This forms the second record along east coast of India after it was recently reported from the West Bengal coast. The present study provides information on morphometric characters and meristic counts of the flyingfish.Keywords
