Nemichthys

Marcia Salustiano de Castro & Ana Cristina Teixeira Bonecker, 2005, Leptocephali collected off the eastern coast of Brazil (12 ° – 23 ° S)., Zootaxa 935, pp. 1-28 : 13

One specimen of Nemichthys was also identified for this region during the autumn and it was collected near the Vitória-Trindade ridge (Figure 18). As it was a little damaged it was not possible to count its myomeres. The filiform tail was the character used to distinguish this larva from the other nemichthyid. Study Material: DZUFRJ 2848; one specimen; 138.0 mm SL.
