Larvae of Dactylopsaron dimorphicum (Perciformes: Percophidae) from oceanic islands in the southeast Pacific
Percophids are a family of small marine benthic fishes common over soft bottoms from inshore to the outer slopesin tropical to temperate regions of the Atlantic and in the Indo-West and southeast Pacific (Reader and Neira, 1998; Okiyama, 2000). Five species belonging to four genera have been recorded around the Salas y Gómez Ridge in the southeast Pacific, all of which are endemic to the area except for Chrionema chryseres, a species which also occurs off the Hawaiian Islands and Japan (Parin, 1985, 1990;Parin et al., 1997). Of these five species, larval stages have been described only for Osopsaron karlik and Chrionemapallidum (Belyanina 1989, 1990).
