Planiliza is a genus of mullets found in coastal marine waters, estuaries and rivers in the Indo-Pacific.

Taxonomy

The genus Planiliza was resurrected for nearly all Indo-Pacific species previously assigned to Liza because DNA-based cladistic analyses recovered Liza as polyphyletic, with some species placed as sister to the Chelon type species and nearly all Indo-Pacific species to Planiliza.[1][2]

Species

The following species are classified under Planiliza by FishBase:[3][4]

  • Planiliza abu (Heckel, 1843) (Abu mullet)
  • Planiliza affinis (Günther, 1861) (Eastern keelback mullet)
  • Planiliza alata (Steindachner, 1892) (Diamond mullet)
  • Planiliza carinata (Valenciennes, 1836) (Keeled mullet)
  • Planiliza haematocheila (Temminck & Schlegel, 1845) (So-iny Mullet)
  • Planiliza klunzingeri (F. Day, 1888) (Klunzinger's mullet)
  • Planiliza macrolepis (A. Smith, 1846) (Largescale mullet)
  • Planiliza mandapamensis J. M. Thomson, 1997 (Indian mullet)
  • Planiliza melinoptera (Valenciennes, 1836) (Otomebora mullet)
  • Planiliza persicus (Senou, J. E. Randall & Okiyama, 1995) (Persian mullet)
