Electrons rissoi - recognition of this species was inconsistent 

 and others may be included in Protomyctophum crockeri or 

 Myctophidae. 



Hygophum spp. - all specimens reidentified to species; residuals 

 are small, poorly preserved or unavailable specimens. 



Hygophum at rat urn - all specimens checked. 



Hygophum reinhardtii - all specimens checked. 



Protomyctophum crockeri - some samples on northern lines may 



contain P. thompsoni , which was not identified originally. 



Physi cuius spp. - specimen checked. 



Ophidiiformes - this category did not exist originally and 



ophidiiform larvae were included in Brosmophycis marginata , 

 Carapidae, "Otophidium" , "Zoarcidae", and "blenny" ; 

 identifications of B. marginata and Carapidae proved to be 

 mostly correct and "Zoarcidae" to be a yet unidentified 

 ophidiiform species; all "Otophidium" and "blenny" were 

 reexamined and the former included Ophidion scrippsae , 

 Chilara taylori and other ophidiiform taxa (moved to order) ; 

 "blenny" contained O. scrippsae, C. taylori, and other 

 ophidiiform taxa. 



Trachipteridae - tentative and sporadic identifications to genus 

 were lumped to family. 



Melamphaes spp. - all identifications ascribed to Melamphaidae 

 were reexamined and assigned to genus {Melamphaes , 

 Poromitra) or species (Scopelogadus bispinosus , Scopeloberyx 

 robustus) ; larvae originally identified as Melamphaes spp. 

 were not reexamined and this category may contain other 

 melamphaid genera. 



Cottidae - all specimens checked. 



Hexagrammidae - specimen checked. 



Oxylebius pictus - all specimens checked. 



Zaniolepis spp. - all specimens checked. 



Sebastes spp. - category may contain other scorpaenid genera, 

 particularly in samples south of line 120. 



Labridae - all specimens originally identified to family were 

 reexamined and assigned to genus {Halichoeres spp.) or 

 species (Oxyjulis calif ornica , Semicossyphus pulcher) ; 

 residuals are of an unidentified southern form. 



Pomacentridae - all original identifications ascribed to this 

 family (except Chromis punctipinnis) were reexamined; all
