Abstract
The family Nemipteridae has five genera and 69 valid species. The dwarf monocle bream belonging to the genus Parascolopsis has 12 species. They are small, bottom-living fishes usually occurring in moderately deep water on outer shelf and continental slope waters throughout tropical and sub-tropical waters of Indo-West Pacific, ranging from Western Indian Ocean to North East Australia, South Japan and Delaga Bay on the coast of East Africa. The present report on Rosy dwarf monocle bream, Parascolopsis eriomma from Tuticorin coast is evidently a range extension from the known distribution areas.
