Author: Essipov, 1927
FBname: Blunt-snouted mullet
Remark: Currently not valid at species level according to Uilein et al. (2024; Ref. 130857):  there is not enough evidence to retain this taxon at species level (it is often cited at subspecies level anyway).  This reference announces a revisio of the genus <i>Mullus</i>.  Corrections will be made when the revision is published
Comments: Occurs over mud, sand and gravel bottoms of the continental shelf.  Feeds on small benthic invertebrates (crustaceans, worms and mollusks) (Ref. 4845).
