A New Argentinid Fish from Hawaii

Abstract

The argentinid fish described in this paper was collected by Mr. Paul Struhsaker of the University of Hawaii during the course of his investigations on the biology of Hawaiian demersal fish and shrimp populations. The species is referred to Glossanodon, a genus with six described Recent species from the tropical Atlantic, Mediterranean, western Indian Ocean, and Japan (Cohen, 1958; Cohen and Atsaides, 1969). It is also represented in the fossil record (jerzmanska, 1967).
