“…However, 2 years ago, seven specimens of L. omanensis were recorded from the Andaman Sea (Gomon & Psomadakis, 2018), the nearest occurring habitat, about 1012 km away from the present finding point of the northernmost Bay of Bengal, Bangladesh. Although the actual cause of its range expansion in the Bay of Bengal is unknown, it could be attributed to recent climate changes and anthropogenic activities (Siddik & Hanif, 2020). Besides, the well‐known habitat of Oman gurnard is the Arabian Sea, where the surface water temperature ranges from 26.4°C to 30.8°C, which is similar to the surface water temperature of the Bay of Bengal (26.5°C to 30°C).…”

“…The Bay of Bengal and the adjacent coastal waters of Bangladesh are rich in diversified fish species and other aquatic organisms (Hanif, 2019; Hanif et al, 2015; Hanif et al, 2021; Nahar et al, 2018; Siddik et al, 2016). With time, many new species are being discovered in this area for increasing fishing efforts but the actual causes for extending their origins are unknown (Hanif et al, 2020; Siddik & Hanif, 2020). This study aims to describe the occurrence of Oman gurnard, Lepidotrigla omanensis , from the Bay of Bengal, Bangladesh.…”

Five specimens of Oman gurnard, Lepidotrigla omanensis (58.7–64.4 mm standard length), distributed widely in the Western Indian Ocean, including Somalia, Oman, Pakistan, Southwest India, and Myanmar, were collected at Patharghata (Barguna district) and Swarupkati (Pirojpur District) fish markets in Bangladesh between March and May 2020. The specimens were caught in the Bay of Bengal. The collected specimens were confirmed as L. omanensis by observing the morphological features: a blade‐like spine at each corner of the upper jaw, a lateral line with 54–62 pored scales, a pectoral fin reaching the 5th to 7th anal fin rays, the first dorsal fin with a large red blotch covering the distal third to sixth spine, and the structure and position of opercular and cleithral spines. Previously, four gurnard species have been reported from the coastal waters of Bangladesh. However, the current study's latitudinal range extension of Oman gurnard demonstrated the potential role to enrich the fish diversity in the Northern Bay of Bengal. A detailed description of the specimens was provided, and intraspecific variations among the specimens of same genus available in the reported area were documented and compared.

“…Species distribution is affected by a simple 'suitability' measure, established by the combination of unimodal responses to environmental variables (Meynard and Quinn, 2007;De-Marco et al 2008). Climate changes are predicted to potentially affect population size, survival and distribution of organisms (Walther et al 2002;Preuss et al 2014;Su et al 2015;Lu et al 2015;Hanif et al 2017;Siddik and Hanif, 2020). The highly discrete geographical distribution of species points towards a strong preference for a particular type of habitat (Hanif et al 2019 (Castellanos-Galindo et al 2018).…”

Groupers are mostly found in the reef-associated marine habitat, of which some are pelagic and others are demersal. Recently, a grouper species called Oblique-banded grouper, Epinephelus radiatus (Day, 1868) was newly reported while conducting research work on the availability of reef-associated fishes in St. Martin Island. This species had never been reported to occur not only from this coral reef area but also from the water area of Bangladesh. E. radiatus was easily identified following morphological traits, especially color pattern. The findings of the present study added new distributional range for this grouper species from Bangladeshi water.

“…Further, an album of coastal and marine fishes of Bangladesh has been published by Singha et al (2019) from DoF where 232 species of marine fishes were illustrated. Beside these major publications, a number of reports and scientific papers have been published on fish diversity with new distributional records, and also with new species to science from the marine waters of Bangladesh in different years, particularly in the decade 2010 to 2020 (Khan et al 2013, BOBLME 2014, Hossain et al 2015, Roy et al 2015, Baki et al 2017, Shamsunnahar et al 2017, Alam et al 2018, Haque and Hossain 2018, Habib et al 2018a,b, Kabir et al 2018, Saha et al 2018, Habib et al 2019, Hanif 2019, Akash et al 2020, Fuad et al 2020Islam andHabib 2020, Islam et al 2020a,b;Saha et al 2020, Siddik and Hanif 2020, Sarkar et al 2021). Thus, descriptions of various marine fishes of Bangladesh have remained scattered throughout a wide range of scientific publications.…”

A checklist of the marine fishes of Bangladesh is presented with their scientific, common andBangla or local names. The global IUCN Red List catagories of these species are also provided. Thisinventory of the marine fish species is compiled from different major and valid published scientific papers,reports and books published within last 50 years from 1970 to 2020. The directory covers a total of 740species belonging to 389 Genera of 145 Families and 30 Orders. Among the fish species, 53.38% areexclusively marine and 46.62% are found in both brackish and marine water. Besides, 296 species of fishesare reef associated and 204 of these are recorded from the Saint Martin’s Island. Further, 271 species ofbrakishwater and/or marine fishes are commonly observed in the Sundarbans mangrove ecosystem and itsadjacent sea area. About 7% of the total marine fishes of Bangladesh are identified as threatened as per globalIUCN Red List. However, the conservation status of the marine fish species of Bangladesh has not yet beenassessed locally by IUCN which is essential. The updated checklist will constitute the reference inventory ofmarine fishes of the coastal and maritime area of the country.
