In the coastal areas of southeastern China, this species is a common food fish with a notable production volume. According to Endruweit et al. in Fishes of the Red River - Perciformes, Synbranchiformes (2024), there were historical records of this species in Hainan Island. However, no specimens have been recorded, and field surveys have failed to confirm its presence. Therefore, Hainan Island is currently not considered part of its distribution range.

在中国东南沿海为常见食用鱼类,具有一定产量。根据Endruweit等的Fishes of the Red River - Perciformes, Synbranchiformes (2024)记载海南岛曾有本种的记录,但未见实物标本,加上实地调查未能发现,暂不记录该产地。
