Muraenichthys iredalei Whitley, 1927: 5 , fig. 1 ( type locality: Michaelmas Cay, Great Barrier Reef, off Cairns, Queensland, Australia). Hibino and Kimura, 2015 a:unnumbered.

Voucher specimen: USNM 427603 (Pingtung).

Remarks. This is a new record for Taiwan. Although McCosker et al. ( 2006) treated this as a junior synonym of S. australis, Hibino & Kimura ( 2015 a) recognized it as a distinct species. The voucher was collected from a shallow coral reef of southern Taiwan.
