Our list records only two species of the genus Melampha'es, but many of our specimens have not yet been determined. M. mizolepis shows a wide distribution in the North Atlantic, and is known from the Indian Ocean. The sub-order Pediculati is well known from shallow water through the angler {Lophius piscatorius), the eggs of which we found floating off the banks of Newfoundland. Genuine deep-sea forms are the members of the Ceratiidae, containing the genera Ceratias, Oneirodes, Melanocetus 2 R.
