| Abstract: | A new leiognathid genus Euleiognathus is proposed for Leiognathus tottori Yabumoto and Uyeno 1994, described from the Middle Miocene Iwami Formation of the Tottori Group, Tottori Prefecture, Japan. Euleiognathus differs from other genera of the family Leiognathidae in having serrations on the anterior edges of the second to fourth
spines of the dorsal fin and relatively large uniserial conical teeth of the premaxilla. |
