Liza bandialensis Diouf 1991 is redescribed because previous descriptions have not been in well-distributed publications and have lacked sufficient detail or reference to voucher specimens. The description provided here is based on specimens from the Sine Saloum estuary, Senegal (West Africa), from where the species was originally described. The distinctness of the species is confirmed both by meristic and molecular criteria. L. bandialensis presents a unique combination of characters with a low number of scales in the longitudinal series (32-33), 10.5-12 transverse scale rows, and distinctly yellowish dorsal, anal, and caudal fins. The currently known distribution of L. bandialensis includes coastal waters of Senegal, Gambia and Guinea Bissau. Finally, we provide a morphological identification key for the sixteen species of Mugilidae species occurring along the eastern central Atlantic coast of Africa.
利扎氏鲻 1991 年被重新描述，因为之前的描述并未在分布广泛的出版物中发表，且缺乏足够的细节或凭证标本的参考。这里提供的描述基于塞内加尔 Sine Saloum 河口的标本，该物种最初就是在这里被描述的。种的独特性通过数量和分子标准得到了证实。利扎氏鲻具有独特的特征组合，其纵向系列的鳞片数量较少（32-33 个），横向鳞片行数为 10.5-12 行，并且背部、肛门和尾部的鳍明显呈黄色。利扎氏鲻目前已知的分布范围包括塞内加尔、冈比亚和几内亚比绍的沿海水域。最后，我们为东中非大西洋海岸沿线的 16 种鲻科鱼类提供了一种形态识别钥匙。
