Paraconger harringtonensis (Mowbray) 
PLATE 1B 
Leptocephalus harringtonensis Mowbray, 1931, p. 1, type locality Bermuda. 
Conger harringtonensis Beebe and Tee-Van, 1933, p. 46, fig. 
SPECIMEN EXAMINED: Holotype, CNHM 48442, Bermuda, Har- 
rington Sound, at night in 7 fathoms, July 20, 1929, L. S. Mowbray, 
389 mm. in total length. 
Description: Length of head 180, depth of head 489, tip of snout 
to origin of dorsal fin 194, tip of snout to anus 443, tip of snout to 
rictus of jaw 57, length of snout 36, diameter of eye 36, pectoral fin 
length 50. Dorsal fin rays 241, anal rays 176, origin of anal fin 
below 76th dorsal ray, pectoral rays 13 and 14, pores in lateral line 
from a perpendicular to anus anteriorly 44 and 43, vertebrae 123 
(x-ray). Supratemporal pore absent; postorbital pores 2; first, sec- 
ond, third, and fifth supraorbital pores present; infraorbital pores 7; 
ethmoidal pores 2; preoperculo-mandibular pores 10. 
Cotor In tire: According to Mowbray’s description (1931, p. 1), 
the specimen is silvery grey above, pale below; the belly is so trans- 
parent that the viscera can be seen through the abdominal wall; the 
peritoneum is silvery white; the vertical fins are pale, transparent, 
making every ray visible. He further states that the specimen is 
conspicuous for the lack of pigment; when living in a bucket it was 
almost invisible except for its large eyes, which were strikingly 
conspicuous. 
CoLor IN ALCOHOL: Head and body brownish; vertical and paired 
fins pale. 
GEOGRAPHICAL RANGE: Bermuda, only known from the type. 
Remarks: This species is closely related to caudilimbatus but dif- 
fers in lacking the supratemporal pore, in the vertical fins appearing 
longer, and in having more dorsal and anal rays.
