Crenimugil is a species of mullets found in coastal marine waters and rivers in the Indo-Pacific region.
Species
- Crenimugil buchanani (Bleeker, 1853) (Bluetail mullet)
- Crenimugil crenilabis (Forsskål, 1775) (Fringelip mullet)
- Crenimugil formosae (Ōshima, 1922)
- Crenimugil seheli (Forsskål, 1775) (Bluespot mullet)
- Crenimugil speigleri (Bleeker, 1858) (Speigler's mullet)
The half-fringelip mullet (Crenimugil heterocheilos), usually assigned to Crenimugil, appears to belong to a separate genus, Paracrenimugil, based on DNA-based cladistic analysis.[1][2]
