Parapercis snyderi, commonly known as Snyder's grubfish or U-mark sandperch, is a marine fish native to the waters off northern Australia and Indonesia.[1] The specific name honours the ichthyologist John Otterbein Snyder who collected the type specimen with David Starr Jordan, one of the co-describers of the species, at Nagasaki.[2]
