  • Pomadasys argenteus (Forsskål, 1775) (no. 9–10 in pl. 1) Material examined. — 36 sagittae (SG 0251-2, 0254-2, 0262-1, 0263, 0264, 0266-2, 0267, 0268, 0270-2, 0271-1, 0271-3, 0272- 3, 0273-2, 0274-2, 0274-10, 0274-13, 0274-14, 0275-10, 0275-7, 0277-1, 0277-3, 0277-4, 0277-5, 0278, 0280-1, 0280-2, 0280-3, 0280-4, 0280-5, 0282, 0285-4, 0285-5, 0288-6, 0291-1, 0291-2, 0168+0292). Dimensions. — Only complete specimens measuring OL, 4.93–26.43 mm; OH, 3.63–16.32 mm; OT, 1.10–6.53 mm; OsL, 1.66–13.16 mm; and OsH, 0.91–6.06 were considered. Remarks. — Thirty-seven specimens of this species were found in the NKLE archaeological site. However, based on the perfectly matching broken edges, one sagitta was found to represent two specimens that were found a substantial distance apart. The two pieces consisted of SG 0168 which was the anterior part and SG 0292 which was the posterior part (no. 10 in pl. 1). Thus the actual count was 36 sagittae. This particular sagitta measured 26.43 mm long, 16.32 mm in height and was 6.53 mm thick. It was extremely large compared to the rest of the samples, which measured 4.93–8.40 mm in length, 3.63–6.06 mm in height, and 1.10–1.96 mm in thickness.
