Arrhamphus sclerolepis is the only species in the genus Arrhamphus of halfbeak found in coastal waters of the Indo-West Pacific around Papua New Guinea and Australia, and in the freshwaters of adjacent river systems. Considered a good game fish, but of little commercial value either as food or as an aquarium fish. This species is known to anglers in Australia as the snub-nosed gar. The species is distinguished from most other halfbeaks by the lower jaw being only slightly longer than the upper jaw.

Subspecies

This species currently has two recognized subspecies:[1]

  • Arrhamphus sclerolepis krefftii (Steindachner, 1867) Southeastern snub-nosed garfish
  • Arrhamphus sclerolepis sclerolepis Günther, 1866 Northern snub-nosed garfish
