	<dc:description>Indo-Pacific:  Persian Gulf (Ref.80050); Red Sea (and eastern Mediterranean via Suez Canal) to southern Africa and French Polynesia, north to Taiwan, south to Australia.  Also in the Arafura Sea (Ref. 9819).  Collected from the estuary of the River Ganges (Ref. 33178).  This name has been used for a number of similar spotted species (Ref. 6871).  Probably a species complex (Ref. 35766).  Its identity has been confused in many publications and Micronesian specimens should be re-examined (Ref. 37816).</dc:description>

	<dc:description>Amphidromous. Refers to fishes that regularly migrate between freshwater and the sea (in both directions), but not for the purpose of breeding, as in anadromous and catadromous species. Sub-division of diadromous.  Migrations should be cyclical and predictable and cover more than 100 km.Characteristic elements in amphidromy are: reproduction in fresh water, passage to sea by newly hatched larvae, a period of feeding and growing at sea usually a few months long, return to fresh water of well-grown juveniles, a further period of feeding and growing in fresh water, followed by reproduction there (Ref. 82692).</dc:description>
