Abstract

A new deep-sea ceratioid anglerfish of the genus Oneirodes Lütken is described on the basis of three specimens collected from off Hawaii, Japan, and the southwest coast of Taiwan. The new species, Oneirodes pietschi, should belong to the member of the Oneirodes schmidti-group, in having a relatively long illicium and subopercular bone. It differs from all known species of the O. schmidti-group, as well as from all previously described species of the genus, in details of its escal morphology.
