The coastal fishes of Madeira Island — new records and an annotated check-list Author Wirtz, Peter Author Fricke, Ronald Author Biscoito, Manuel José text Zootaxa 2008 1715 1 26 journal article 49938 10.5281/zenodo.274128 29ee5190-56be-4f31-8810-fcd4070a5c4e 1175-5326 274128 Diodontidae According to Leis (2006) the name Chilomycterus atringa (Linnaeus, 1758) cannot be assigned with certainty to any species. Tortonese in Whitehead et al. (1986: 1346) recorded it from Madeira. * Chilomycterus reticulatus (Linnaeus, 1758) —Spotfin burrfish Numerous specimens in the MMF and four specimens in the BMNH belong to this species. Diodon hystrix Linnaeus, 1758 —Spot-fin porcupinefish Tortonese in Whitehead et al. (1986:1347) recorded this species from Madeira. However, the Diodon species at the Canary Islands (Brito et al. 2005) and at the Azores ( Azevedo et al. 2004 ) is Diodon eydouxii Brisout de Barneville, 1846. The presence of D. hystrix at Madeira therefore appears doubtful and the identity of Madeiran Diodon needs checking.
