- ... that despite having a wide distribution in shallow seas, the 43 cm (17 in) multilined pufferfish was not described until 2016?

Hi, I came by to promote this, but the article is citing two different lengths for the fish, a "maximum" length of 43 cm and another length of 45 cm. Yoninah (talk) 01:10, 12 June 2018 (UTC)
- @Yoninah: Well spotted! What the source for one of the lengths said was "Reported to reach a length of nearly 18 inches" and there is really not a great difference between 18 inches and 17 inches, especially when you do a conversion into centimetres and round it to a whole number. Anyway, I have removed the second length. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 04:55, 12 June 2018 (UTC)
- Thank you. Restoring tick per Philroc's review. Yoninah (talk) 12:22, 12 June 2018 (UTC)
