obscura, Trigla Walbaum [J. J.] 1792:373 [Petri Artedi sueci genera piscium Part 3; ref. 4572] In mari mediterraneo [Mediterranean Sea]. No types known. This predates Trigla obscura Bloch & Schneider 1801; also note that Blanc & Hureau 1973:588 [ref. 7218] date to Linnaeus 1764 [but that date is apparently 1754, prelinnaean, Mus. Ad. Fr. 2, p. 94]. •Valid as Aspitrigla obscura (Walbaum 1792) with author as Bloch & Schneider 1801 -- (Blanc & Hureau 1973:588 [ref. 7218], Hureau in Whitehead et al. 1986:1232 [ref. 13677] and Arruda 1997:117 [ref. 24952] all with Linnaeus as author). •Valid as Chelidonichthys obscurus (Walbaum 1792) with author as Bloch & Schneider 1801 -- (Richards & Saksena 1990:682 [ref. 17757], Bilecenoğlu et al. 2002:73 [ref. 26753]). •Valid as Chelidonichthys obscurus (Walbaum 1792) (sic) -- (Fricke et al. 2007:78 [ref. 29533], Lipej & Dulčić 2010:39 [ref. 36649], Richards 2016:2307 [ref. 35044], Martins & Carneiro 2018:112 [ref. 36550], Carneiro et al. 2019:235 [ref. 37250], Elbaraasi et al. 2019:96 [ref. 36864], Kovačić et al. 2020:46 [ref. 37519], Bañón & Maño 2021:68 [ref. 38883], Kovačić et al. 2021:83 [ref. 39014]). Current status: Valid as Chelidonichthys obscurus (Walbaum 1792). Triglidae: Triglinae. Distribution: Mediterranean Sea; eastern Atlantic: British Isles south to Mauritania, including Madeira.

obscura, Trigla Bloch [M. E.] & Schneider [J. G.] 1801:16 [M. E. Blochii, Systema Ichthyologiae; ref. 471] Mediterranean Sea. No types known. Same source as Trigla obscura Walbaum 1792, i.e. Linnaeus 1754, Mus. Ad. Fr. 2, p. 94. Probably not an independent species description but based on Walbaum 1792. •Synonym of Chelidonichthys obscurus (Walbaum 1792). Current status: Synonym of Chelidonichthys obscurus (Walbaum 1792). Triglidae: Triglinae. Habitat: marine.
