Duskytail grouper
Explanation:
Unfortunately, official Arabic websites of GCC countries have different translations of this type of grouper, as follows:

1- Epinephelus bleekeri (duskytail groupper)
2- Epinephelus spp
3- Epinephelus episticus (dotted grouper)
4- Epinephelus diacanthus (Spinycheeck groupper)


based on an extensive research, I think this refers to duskytail grouper. However, its Arabic pronunciation has become ديسكو
