Three uncommon fishes, viz. porcupine whipray, Urogymnus asperrimus (Bloch & Schneider, 1801), Shaggy angler, Antennarius hispidus (Bloch & Schneider, 1801), and barless cardinalfish, Taeniamia ataenia (Randall & Satapoomin, 1999), are reported herein as first records from the Andaman Islands. The former two are hitherto not reported from the Islands, while the latter was found to be a new record for India. Porcupine whipray and barless cardinalfish were identified based on in situ photographs. Shaggy angler was identified based on two specimens collected from a discarded commercial beach–seine fishery. Categorized by IUCN as Vulnerable, porcupine whipray is previously known from Lakshadweep and the peninsular coasts of India. The shaggy angler was reported from a shallow muddy habitat of 5–7 m in the present study. Though the type locality of barless cardinalfish is the eastern Indian Ocean, this has not been recorded earlier from India.

三种不常见的鱼，即。豪猪鞭子，Urogymnus asperrimus（Bloch＆Schneider，1801），蓬松的垂钓者，Antennarius hispidus（Bloch＆Schneider，1801）和无刺红衣主教，Taeniamia ataenia（Randall＆Satapoomin，1999），是安达曼群岛的第一份记录。迄今为止，前两个群岛尚未报道，而后者被发现是印度的新纪录。根据原位照片确定了豪猪鞭子和无杠红衣主教鱼。根据从废弃的商业海滩围网捕捞中收集的两个标本鉴定出粗毛垂钓者。IUCN将其归类为易受伤害的豪猪鞭子，以前从Lakshadweep和印度半岛沿岸知道。在本研究中，据报道来自5-7 m的浅泥泞栖息地的垂钓者。尽管无杆红衣主教鱼类的类型地区是印度洋东部，但印度尚未对此进行记录。
