Taxon Notes:	Amaoka & Last (2014) reassigned Arnoglossus aspilos praeteritus as a valid species of Engyprosopon, that is confirmed from northwestern Australia between Shark Bay (WA) and Darwin (NT). It may occur further eastwards but these records require confirmation. The true Arnoglossus aspilos is confirmed from Indonesia (type locality) and Japan, but not known from Australia.
