The genome sequence of the Antarctic lanternfish, Electrona antarctica (Günther, 1878) [version 2; peer review: 2 approved, 1 approved with reservations] [PDF]

Wellcome Open Research
We present a genome assembly from an individual female Electrona antarctica (the Antarctic lanternfish; Chordata; Actinopterigii; Myctophiformes; Myctophidae). The genome sequence has a total length of 1,427.40 megabases.

Diversity of lanternfish (Myctophidae) larvae along the Ninety East Ridge, Indian Ocean [PDF]

PeerJ
Since the 19th century, the impact of seamounts on the distribution of plankton has been a topic of considerable interest. The influence of seamounts on the biogeographic patterns of marine organisms is complex, with some aspects still under debate.

First evidence of sexual dimorphism in olfactory organs of deep-sea lanternfishes (Myctophidae) [PDF]

PeerJ
Finding a mate is of the utmost importance for organisms, and the traits associated with successfully finding one can be under strong selective pressures. In habitats where biomass and population density is often low, like the enormous open spaces of the

Dispersion Overrides Environmental Variability as a Primary Driver of the Horizontal Assemblage Structure of the Mesopelagic Fish Family Myctophidae in the Northern Gulf of Mexico

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2020
The lanternfishes (Myctophidae) are a highly speciose, globally-distributed family of fishes that constitute a dominant component of the global pelagic fauna.

Occurrence and distribution of larval lanternfish (Myctophidae) from the southwest Atlantic Ocean

Zoologia, 2010
This study analyzes the occurrence and distribution of lanternfish (Myctophidae) larvae along the Brazilian coast (12-22ºS) between 200 m and the surface. Three cruises were conducted during the spring/1998, winter/1999 and autumn/2000.

Lanternfish otoliths (Myctophidae, Teleostei) from the Miocene of Japan [PDF]

Zitteliana, 2022
Lanternfishes (Myctophidae) are one of the most common groups of fishes in the mesopelagic zone of the world ocean, and their otoliths have been dominant in pelagic sediments since at least Miocene times. Many species have a wide geographic distribution,
