A new species ofPterygotrigla(Pisces: Triglidae) from New Zealand [PDF]
New Zealand Journal of Zoology, 1982 Abstract Pterygotrigla pauli n.sp. is described from 6 specimens trawled at 512-630 m on the Challenger Plateau, off the west coast of New Zealand. It differs from P. picta (Gunther) and P. polyommata (Richardson) principally in having a very large, bony orbit and a scattering of small, yellow spots on the upper surface of the body, behind the head.

Growth of red gurnard (Teleostei: Triglidae) from Pegasus bay, Canterbury, New Zealand [PDF]
New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, 1972 Abstract Growth of the red gurnard, Chelidonichthys kumu (Lesson and Garnot), from Pegasus Bay, Canterbury, was measured during 1966–67. Otoliths were used as an indicator of fish growth; mean length‐at‐age data were obtained from back‐calculated fish lengths at the time of formation of successive annual rings in the otoliths.
