Deep-sea manefishes (Perciformes: Caristiidae) from oceanic islands and seamounts off northeastern Brazil, with comments on the caristiids previously reported in Brazilian waters
Résumé
17 The manefishes of the family Caristiidae are rare, poorly known deep-sea species with broad 18 geographical distribution. This study provides new information on the distribution of this family 19 in the western South Atlantic, with the first records of Paracaristius nudarcus, Platyberyx 20 andriashevi, Platyberyx paucus and Platyberyx pietschi in Brazilian waters. Measurements and 21 counts for all specimens examined are provided and compared with those available in the 22 literature. In addition, the identity of caristiids previously reported from Brazil are discussed. 23
