Torquigener flavimaculosus  Hardy &amp; Randall (1983) was described based on specimens collected from the Gulf of Aqaba, Gulf of Suez, and Gulf of Aden, which has then penetrated the Mediterranean Sea, becoming one of the most abundant invasive tetraodontids. A comparison of samples collected from the northern Levant coasts of Türkiye between 2007 and 2020 showed that morphometric and meristic characteristics do not fully match either with  T. flavimaculosus , or the closely related congeneric species  T. hypselogeneion  and  T. altipinnis . Multivariate analysis carried out by 16 morphometric and six meristic characters did not show any discrimination between the above-mentioned species and exhibited almost identical sequences in genetic analysis. The results strongly suggest that  T. flavimaculosus  and  T. hypselogeneion  are conspecific, making the former species a junior synonym of the latter.
