Issue
Questionably a synonym of Chiloscyllium plagiosum in Compagno 2001 (Ref. 43278).
Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range
Ökologie
seewasser demersal. Subtropical; 10°S - 26°S
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).

Maturity: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 67.0 cm TL Männchen/unbestimmt; (Ref. 247)
Light brown dorsally, paler ventrally, with blue-white spots (Ref. 391).
Life cycle and mating behavior
