Sternoptychidae - tentative and sporadic identifications of 

 hatchet fishes to genus were lumped to family. 



Bathophilus spp. - all specimens checked. 



Tactostoma macropus - all specimens checked, and identifications 

 changed to Bathophilus spp. 



Scopelarchidae - tentative and sporadic identifications to genus 

 lumped to family. 



Lampanyctus spp. - tentative and sporadic identifications to 

 species (mostly descriptive types) lumped to genus; 

 identification of L. regalis and L. ritteri began in 1954. 



Lampanyctus regalis - underrepresented because of inability to 

 differentiate small larvae (<5 mm) from those of other 

 species of the genus; counts may include other species of 

 the genus because of difficulty in identifying larvae of 

 this large and complex genus. 



Lampanyctus ritteri - comment for L. regalis applies to this 

 species. 



Stenobrachius leucopsarus - all specimens south of line 120 

 checked. 



Diogenichthys atlanticus - all specimens at margins of range 

 checked . 



Diogenichthys laternatus - all specimens at margins of range 

 checked . 



Electrona 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 specimens. 



Myctophum aurolaternatum - specimens checked; originally called 

 "Astronesthidae" . 



Protomyctophum crockeri - some samples on northern lines may 

 contain P. thompsoni , which was not identified at the 

 time. 



Symbolophorus calif orniensis - all specimens south of line 120 

 checked for confusion with Hygophum spp., stemming from 

 descriptive names. 



Bregmaceros spp. - all gadiform types (see Index) , except 

 Merluccius productus and Macrouridae, reexamined.
