- Abstract
The new record of the ornamental fish Lactoria cornuta is reported from the coastal waters of Gopalpur (Odisha). Previously, along the east coast of India this species was reported only from the Gulf of Mannar and Puducherry. The tropical cyclone Hudhud and the subtidal rocky ridge present off the Gopalpur coast are suspected to have played a major role in the occurrence of this species in the region.
