Taxonomy. First record from Lebanon as Centrophorus granulosus, Müller et Henle by Gruvel (1931: 75); recently recorded as Centrophorus granulosus by Colloca & Lelli (2012: 13); as Centrophorus granulosus by Lteif (2015: 61), and as Centrophorus uyato (Rafinesque 1810) by Lteif et al. (2017). Recent unpublished records from Tripoli ( 26 September 2005) and Sarafand ( 13 September 2017).
