Description

Paralbunea dayriti (Serène & Umali, 1965)

Paralbunea dayriti – Komai 2000: 368 [list]; Boyko 2002: 3, 181, 192, 197–203, 393, figs. 64, 65 [full synonymy]; Boyko 2007: 181–182 [Western Australia]; Osawa and Fujita 2007: 127 [mention]; Boyko 2010: 51–52 [Guam]; Boyko and McLaughlin 2010: 142 [list]; Osawa and Fujita 2012: 246, 260, 261 [mention]; Poore et al. 2014: 8 [Western Australia]; Fujita et al. 2017 [mention].

Material examined: 1 female (12.3 mm CL × 15.3 mm CW), Balicasag Island, Panglao, Bohol Province, Philippines, tangle nets, 50–500 m, coll. fishermen, 29 Nov. 2001 (ZRC 2001.0695); 1 female (8.4 mm CL × 10.5 mm CW), Yong’an, Kaohsiung County, Taiwan, coll. G.-J. Xin (ZRC 2016.0116).

Range: Known from southern Japan southward to Western Australia, and eastward to New Caledonia, Mariana Islands (Guam), the Marshall Islands, and Tahiti, at 6.1–45.5 m deep (Boyko 2002 2010; Osawa et al. 2010).

Remarks: The Philippines and Taiwan are both countries from which P. dayriti has been previously reported (Serène and Umali 1965; Boyko 2002). The present Philippine specimen was likely caught from the shallower range (ca. 50 m) of the tangle net deployment, judging from prior records of the species’ depth range (Boyko 2002).
