Eye reduction and phylogenetic age in ophidiiform cave fish1
The West Indian Ophidiiform fish are characterized by the occurrence of several troglobitic species. They are Ogilbia (= Typhliasina) pearsei (Yucatan), Lucifuga subterraneus, L. dentatus and L. simile (Cuba), and L. spelaeotes (Bahama Islands). The surface relatives, e. g. Ogilbia spp., prefer lightpoor zones.

A superfast muscle in the complex sonic apparatus of Ophidion rochei (Ophidiiformes): histological and physiological approaches [PDF]
Abstract In teleosts, superfast muscles are generally associated with the swimbladder wall whose vibrations result in sound production. In Ophidion rochei, three pairs of muscles were named 'sonic' because their contractions affect swimbladder position: the dorsal sonic muscle (DSM), the intermediate sonic muscle (ISM), and the ventral ...
