* Dojaus monticola (Bancroft, 1834).
Mountain Mullet. To 36 cm (14.2 in) TL (Harrison in Fischer et al. 1995). Southern tip of Baja California (Robertson and Allen 2015) to northern Peru, including Gulf of California (Robertson and Allen 2002), and Islas Galápagos (Fricke et al. 2020). Marine, brackish, and fresh waters (Fricke et al. 2020); depth: intertidal (Personal communication: Scripps Institution of Oceanography Fish Collection, La Jolla, California), and surface (Personal communication: Scripps Institution of Oceanography Fish Collection, La Jolla, California).
