New distributional record of the deep pugnosepony fish, SecutorIndicius (Monkolprasit, 1973) (Perciformes: Leiognathidae) from Jakhau coast, Gujarat
A new distributional record of a deep pugnosepony fish belonging to the family Leiognathidae, Secutorindicius has been caught for the first time from the Western coast of India at Jakhau landing centre, Kachchh district, Gujarat. The morphometric and meristic characters of the specimen were measured using standard available keys. Further, the DNA barcoding was carried out for the mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI) gene from the tissues of the paratype specimen and phylogenetic studies using Neighbor-joining tree construction to ascertain the relationship and similarity with the specimens of the same species barcoded in other places of South India and authentication of the specimen to Secutorindicius.
