Recorded from Lanuza Bay (Ref. 104756). Presence in tne waters of the country was confirmed, but its absence or apparent rarity from the markets is surprising (commonly landed at fish markets in nearby countries) (Ref. 47737). Also Ref. 244, 6871, 9997, 110893, 121724.

Occurrence: Lanuza Bay, Surigao del Sur; Manila Bay (?); Sibuyan Island, Romblon Prov. (?); Sitankai, Sulu Province (?).
