The species Arius maculates (Thunberg 1792) (Siluriformes, Ariidae) is recorded for the
first time from the muddy shores of the inter-tidal zone of Bandar Abbas, Persian Gulf, Iran in
February 2011. In this study, the morphological features of Arius maculates are described.
This species has previously been recorded from Gulf of Oman to Indonesia, north to Japan
(locality type). This finding considerably extends our knowledge of the distribution of Arius
maculates.
