Diagnoses, comparisons, photographs and distribution maps are given for three previously described Indo-West Pacific species of Trachinotus that develop spots on their sides as adults. A new species, Trachinotus macrospilus, is described from the Marquesas Islands where it is endemic and the only species of the genus present. It differs from the other spotted Indo-West Pacific species most noticeably in having adults with only one or two large spots on each side, the largest spot larger than…

Parupeneus williamsi, a new species of goatfish (Perciformes: Mullidae) endemic to the Marquesas Islands, French Polynesia
TLDR
A new species of goatfish, Parupeneus williamsi, is described from the Marquesas Islands, French Polynesia, which is distinguished from P. multifasciatus by having all of the bands and saddle very indistinct, dense melanophores uniformly distributed on the anal-fin membranes.
Species validation, growth, reproduction and nutritional perspective of Indian pompano, Trachinotus mookalee–A candidate species for diversification in coastal mariculture
A single intronic single nucleotide polymorphism in splicing site of steroidogenic enzyme hsd17b1 is associated with phenotypic sex in oyster pompano, Trachinotus anak
TLDR
Oyster pompano belongs to the family Carangidae, in which 17b-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 1 (hsd17b1) has repeatedly evolved to an MSD gene, and whole-genome resequencing identified a single nucleotide polymorphism at chromosome 24 to be strictly associated with phenotypic sex.

A list of the 493 coastal fish species known or reported from the Mauritian island of Rodrigues is presented, based on specimens of 316 species collected during a five-week survey conducted in September and October 2001, with new species include: Pomacentrus rodriguesensis Allen and Wright, 2003.
Fishes of the Cocos (Keeling) Islands: new records, community composition and biogeographic significance
TLDR
Sixty-seven new records (from 28 families) are described and the total number of known fishes to 602 species from 84 families are raised, including species that have dispersed more than 2500 km and dispersal ability appears to explain the lack of syngnathids and the high representation of acanthurids and holocentrids in the community.
Aspects of the biology and life history of largespot pompano, Trachinotus botla, in South Africa
TLDR
Biological investigations revealed that Trachinotus botla is a fast growing species that attains a maximum age of ~7 years, and an ontogenetic dietary shift was observed just after sexual maturity that is possibly linked to a change in habitat preference with larger fish foraging on deeper reefs.
