6 Sillaginidae species, including Sillago bassensis, Sillago aeolus, Sillago japonica, Sillago sihama, Sillago parvisquamis, Sillago sinaca, were analyzed by using morphology (including otolith) and mtDNA sequencing techniques in order to determine the phylogenetic relationship among species and the genetic diversity among different geographical populations. Till now, the researches about Sillaginidae species are mostly focus on morphological differences. The results of this study fill up the blank in the f...
