First records of the Redfin Brotula, Petrotyx sanguineus (Meek & Hildebrand, 1928) (Ophidiiformes, Bythitidae), in the western South Atlantic [PDF]
The present study reports on the first records of the bythitid Redfin Brotula, Petrotyx sanguineus (Meek & Hildebrand, 1928), in the western South Atlantic, based on 7 specimens (50.8–152.8 mm SL) from 5 localities along the ...

Deep-water Barathronus multidens (Ophidiiformes: Bythitidae) was previously known from the two type specimens from off the coast of Florida and Morocco. In this paper, we characterize morphologically and molecularly a juvenile (45 mm SL) caught by a Sigsbee trawl at the Mid-Atlantic Ridge (16º50’N) between the surface and 3,227 m.

Sexual dimorphism in the sonic system and otolith morphology of Neobythites gilli (Ophidiiformes)
AbstractAlthough males and females of many sound‐producing fish species may show differences at the level of the sonic apparatus, otoliths are usually species specific having intraspecific variation only if exposed to different environmental condition or in relation with the fish size.

An enigmatic teleost fish from the Eocene of Bolca (Italy) with unusual larval‐like features
Abstract ‘Pegasus’ volans is a highly unusual fossil teleost fish from the celebrated Eocene Bolca Lagerstätte. The fossil, known on the basis of two specimens, has been historically assigned to seamoths (Pegasidae), then to oarfishes and relatives (Lampriformes).

With 289 known species in 51 genera, the ophidiiform family Ophidiidae together with their relatives from the Carapidae (36 species in eight genera) of the same suborder Ophidioidei dominate the deep sea, but some occur also in shallow water habitats.

Hearing capacities and otolith size in two ophidiiform species (Ophidion rocheiandCarapus acus) [PDF]
AbstractNumerous studies have highlighted the diversity of fish inner ear morphology. However, the function of shape, size, and orientation of the different structures remains poorly understood. The saccule (otolithic endorgan) is considered as the principal hearing organ in fishes and it has been hypothesized that sagitta (saccular otolith) shape and ...

The goal of this study was to leverage existing survey technology to design and test an eDNA sampler that captures an integrated eDNA sample over the length of a deep‐water transect. We provide a biological interpretation of the resulting data, demonstrating the usefulness of such technology to understand the ocean environments, using fish species as ...

First Record from the Libyan Coast of Parophidion vassali Risso, 1810 (Ophidiiformes: Ophidiidae)
This research presents the first recording of a rare species of fish from Libya. A specimen of Parophidion vassali approximately 108.1 mm in length was identified using the characteristics of the otoliths.
