The present study confirmed the occurrences of Walton’s mudskipper Periophthalmus waltoni Koumans 1941 under the family Gobiidae as the first kind of record from the estuarine region of river Narmada of Gujarat, India. A total of 21 specimens were collected with the size ranging from 124 to 145 mm and from 10.7 to 26.2 g, respectively, from Jageshwar fishing sites during the monsoon period (July–September 2019). Walton’s mudskipper was reported to be found in countries like Iran, Iraq, Oman and Pakistan, but its availability in Indian waters is questionable. The present findings confirmed the occurrences of the species in the Narmada estuary, Gujarat, India drainage to the Arabian Sea.

本研究证实了来自印度古吉拉特邦纳尔默达河河口地区的第一类记录是在戈壁科（Gobiidae）家族下出现的沃尔顿（Walton）泥sk Periophthalmus waltoni Koumans 1941。在季风期间（2019年7月至9月），从Jageshwar捕鱼场收集了总共21个标本，大小分别为124至145 mm和10.7至26.2 g。据报道，沃尔顿的泥ton存在于伊朗，伊拉克，阿曼和巴基斯坦等国家，但在印度水域的可用性却令人质疑。目前的发现证实了该物种在印度古吉拉特邦纳尔默达河口向阿拉伯海排水的情况。
