Diagnosis. Barathronus diaphanus differs from the other five species of the genus with dark-pigmented peritoneum by the following combination of characters: dorsal-fin rays 58–73, anal-fin rays 48–61, long rakers on anterior gill arch 25–35, precaudal vertebrae 30–35, total vertebrae 66–75, vomer with 1–5 fangs, paired bulbs at basis of penis not developed, no ventral flexure of anteriormost vertebrae. Ripe males with rather thick penis. Newly-caught specimens bright red, preserved specimens light-brownish with dark-blue peritoneum. Otolith ( Fig. 11 View FIGURE 11 ) similar to that of B. bicolor ( Fig. 8 View FIGURE 8 ).
Description. For a detailed description see Nielsen (1969: 44). The principal meristic and morphometric characters are shown in Table 1.
Comparisons. For a comparison to the very similar species, B. bicolor , see page 6.
Distribution ( Fig. 2 View FIGURE 2 ). From Madagascar to Japan and Tonga ls. at depths of 579–2030 m.
