- Thirteen species of Mullidae (goatfishes or red mullets) occur in the Red Sea: Mulloides flavolineatus, M. vanicolensis, Parupeneus cyclostomus, P. forsskali, P. heptacanthus, P. macronemus, P. rubescens, Upeneus asymmetricus, U. moluccensis, U. subvittatus (previously known only from the western Pacific), 0. sulphureus, U. tragula and U. vittatus. Descriptions, biological observations and black and white photographs are given for each of these 13 species. Keys are provided to the genera of Mullidae, to the species occurring in the Red Sea, and to the two Mediterranean species of Mullus that have been reported from the Suez Canal. The distinction between the genera Pseudupeneus and Parupeneus is discussed., Rhodes University Libraries (Digitisation)
