Taxonomy[edit]

Taxonomic structure is based on that in Wikispecies as of December 2009. Please do not rearrange without discussion. Alphabetising by binomial, within family is welcome where this is not already done.

Ordinary errors - go ahead and correct.

Species not yet in the list: Either add in correct family or append to bottom of file in section "Unallocated species"

Merge back into List of marine bony fishes of South Africa[edit]

Current taxonomic structure on WoRMS on which this set of lists is based necessitates remergeing to get orders fixed and complete before a different splitting to the current setup, This will be simpler and less work than trying to do it piece by piece. · · · Peter Southwood ^(talk): 04:17, 16 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
