Family Muraenidae View in CoL View at ENA

According to Smith (2012) the classification of moray eels is still a work in progress, and has not yet resulted in a stable phylogeny. The family is imperfectly known since the definitions and boundaries of genera are still uncertain. Moreover, new species are continually being discovered and described.
