Both species had only been previously recorded from Iriomote-jima Island and the Yaeyama Islands in Japan, and were never subsequently reported after these first Japanese records. Thus, these specimens are the first distributional records from around Okinawa-jima Island, and are the second records of both species from Japan. The two species belong to genus Lutjanus, and most species in this genus are know as common commercial fish. Our current findings indicate that understanding of marine biodiversity is still insufficient in the Ryukyu Archipelago., 沖縄島東岸の漁港で水揚げされたイモトフエダイLutjanus madras (Valenciennes, 1831)とハスジマタルミL. dodecacanthoides (Bleeker,1854) が各1 標本採集された. 本邦における両種の採集例は, 西表島と八重山諸島からの日本初記録に限られ, それ以降の記録はない. 本研究で得られた両種の標本は, 我が国からの 2 例目の記録であるとともに, 沖縄島周辺海域からの初めての記録となるため, その詳細を記録した. これら2 種は, いずれも沖縄県で水産重要種として取引されるフエダイ属に属する. このような分類群からも初記録となる種がみられることは, 琉球列島の海洋生物多様性が未だ過小評価されていることを意味している., 論文}, pages = {1--6}, title = {First records of two rare snappers, Lutjanus madras and L. dodecacanthoides, from Okinawan waters}, volume = {14}, year = {2014} }
