Issue
Questionably a synonym of Chiloscyllium plagiosum in Compagno 2001 (Ref. 43278).
Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range
Ecologie

Western Indian Ocean: confined to Madagascar. Previously synonymized with Chiloscyllium plagiosum but after comparisons have been made, this species was tentatively recognized as valid. Not in Compagno's 1999 checklist (Ref. 35766).
