36 ALLAN HANCOCK ATLANTIC EXPEDITION REPORT 



Island, Venezuela. 

 A 44-39, 1 (ca. 28.5 mm.), AHF 2879, from 4 mi. N. of 

 Tortuga Island, Venezuela. 

 Remarks: We do not believe that all of this material necessarily 

 belonged to the same species or even to the same genus. Because of 

 condition and/or small size, we hesitated to do more than assign it to 

 this family. 



Brotulidae 



Dinematichthys cayorum (Evermann and Kendall) 



Material: A 1-39, 1 (26.8 mm.), AHF 2776, from Caledonia Bay, 



Panama. 

 A 50-39, 1 (34.9 mm.), AHF 2777, from Caledonia Bay, 



Panama. 

 A 57-39, 11 (27.4—45.4 mm.), AHF 2778, from Caledonia 



Bay, Panama. 



Ophidiidae 



Ophidiidae, Genus and species undetermined 



Material: A 13-39, 2 (ca. 20 mm.; and an anterior fragment only, 

 ca. 15 mm.), AHF 2779, from 1 mi. S. W. of Cape 

 la Vela, Colombia. 

 A 15-39, 2 {ZZ3, ca. 38 mm.), AHF 2780, from 2 mi. off 

 Bahia Honda, Colombia. 

 Remarks: This material was so small and in such poor condition 

 that we hesitated even to assign it to a genus. However, it appeared to 

 conform most closely to either the genus Otophidium or the genus 

 Ophidion. 



Garapidae 



Material in this family was determined with the aid of Arnold 

 (1956).
