Description

Lotella marginata.

D. 7-8 | 65. A. 62. V. 5.

Head of moderate length, two ninths of the total, the caudal fin not included. Eye very large, more than one third of the length of the head, and equal to that of the postorbital portion; consequently the snout is short, though its length much exceeds the width of the interorbital space. The maxillary extends only to below the middle of the eye; jaws with an outer series of distinctly larger teeth. Barbel very small.

Pacific coast of South-western South America (Stations 305-308), 120 to 345 fathoms.
