Gymnothorax tamilnaduensis is a species of moray eel native to the southeast coast of India, more specifically the Bay of Bengal, on the coast of Tamil Nadu.[1][2][3] The body lacks any pattern of spots or stripes, and is very short compared to other morays. The first specimens of the species were collected at a depth of 25–30 meters.[4][3]
