Abstract

Present paper reports four snappers, namely Lutjanus guilcheri, L. madras, L. quinquelineatus and L. vitta for the first time from the coastal waters of Odisha. Their taxonomic accounts and distributional information are also provided for confirming their identity and range of distribution. The paper thus claims for the range extension of these four species to Odisha coast.
