Discussion Pomadasys incisus is one of the most common species in Dar bel Hamri. It is also a long-ranging species that has been recorded since the late Early Miocene ( Schwarzhans, 2010, and references therein). Te otoliths of P. incisus are also remarkable for a pronounced late ontogenetic morphological change whereby large otoliths (14 mm in length, Fig. 23d View Fig ) become increasingly more elongate than smaller ones (8.7–11.8 mm in length, Fig. 23e–h View Fig ) (see Lombarte et al., 2006, for figures of extant otoliths). Tis effect is also documented in the ontogenetic sequence depicted in Lombarte et al. (2006). Today, P. incisus is distributed from the Strait of Gibraltar to Angola and is also known from the western Mediterranean ( Froese & Pauly, 2022).
