Whitley's toadfish (Torquigener whitleyi) is a species of fish in the family Tetraodontidae that reaches a length of 9.8 cm,[2] and is a host to Bianium plicitum.[3]
It lives in the Indo-West Pacific, from northern Australia to Papua New Guinea.[2] It lives at depths from 0 to 50 meters near coastal waters in sandy-bottom substrates with no vegetation, and feeds on molluscs and crustaceans in the areas it inhabits.[4]
Its population is unknown, yet it occurs in marine protected areas, and has no specific threats to it, and the IUCN Red List puts it at "least concern".[4]
